I purchased a 4ft Rhododendron from Costco for half-price thinking I might be able to get it healthy..it seems Costco did not water these plants and they looked it but I picked the best of the lot. I immeadiately gave it a huge drink then the next day transfered it to a larger container..after losening up the root ball somewhat,added quality commercial garden soil..anyway,it seems to be holding it's own and getting slightly better but am I doing enough,should I be deep watering it because of its condition..I know rodies don't like too much watering..is this the exception? My neighbor says to give it a big can of tomato juice for the acid? :)
