    Is there a special fertilizer for Azaleas.I have one that has been here for over 2 years and just recently(in fall) got its first bloom.Everything else in my yard has done fabulously, except for that one Azalea.Thanks.

    n spring, just after the blooms fade, apply mulch and fertilize with a controlled-release, acid-forming fertilizer such as cottonseed meal or commercial azalea/camellia food. Do not mulch in fall; this will hold heat in the soil and delay the onset of dormancy, increasing the chances of winter damage. And don’t fertilize before bloom―you’ll encourage leafy growth at the wrong time
