Watering Keep the root zone evenly moist, particularly while the plant is establishing and when flower buds or fruit are developing. Rainwater is preferable in hard-water areas for acid-loving plants. Avoid waterlogging, but do not allow container-grown plants to dry out for long periods.

Best Growing Conditions Grow in partial shade to gentle sun in acidic, well-drained ericaceous soil or compost. Choose a position with good airflow and enough space for the plant to reach its mature size. Shelter from cold drying winds and strong early-morning sun, especially when flower buds are developing.

Top tip

Use rainwater where practical in hard-water areas and avoid planting too deeply, as these acid-loving plants prefer their roots close to the surface. Keep the root zone on the acidic side with ericaceous compost or suitable acidic soil, and avoid lime-based feeds.
