Azaleas Are Dying

Question

My azaleas were healthy, but over the past 4 years they are slowly dying, one branch at a time. The leaves on the branch that begins to die turn yellow, then fall off. What could be the problem, and how can I fix it?

Answer 1

Have you been fertilizing? Slow decay like this normally happens due to prolonged nutrient loss. Have the soil teated, and in the meantime, give them some higher acid fertilizer, like Holly Tone.
