Q.My rhododendron is leggy and a lot of the leaves turned brown over the winter. Is it worth trying to rejuvenate it?
If I move it to a shadier location, which is near a walnut tree, will it survive?

As far as planting near your walnut tree, please contact your local extension service or a nursery and tell them 1) what kind of walnut tree you have, and 2) what variety of rhodie you're growing. They should be able to help you.
