How to Grow Acid Loving Plants in Pa

Author: Bill Hirst

Growing azaleas, rhododendrons, blueberries, holly, pieris, heather, and other plants that love acidic and organics soils can be fun and rewarding.
One of my fond memories of being 12 was catching my first shad. Each spring the shad migrate up the Delaware River to end their life long journey to spawn. Their migration is like clockwork, arriving exactly on time, like the swallows of Capistrano each year. In many ways so are the flowers and buds on plants. I remember my shad and the picture of this trophy. I was standing next to a large azalea in full bloom. Each year I would see the blooms on that azalea and know that as they swelled so the shad were approaching. Thus I came to associate the blooms of azaleas with it’s time to go fishing. How smart and lucky I was. For there are so many varieties and blooming times for azaleas plus some varieties have small second flushes, that I can now say with absolute certainty that, “It’s always time to go fishing”.
Following these recommendations will help you have success in raising these plants.
