Certified ExpertA.There are many things that could be causing the yellow leaves. I would try a fertilizer first and also make sure that they are getting enough water and that there is not any damage to the roots that would be preventing them from taking up water.

July 10, 2011Q.Blueberry Bush
I planted 3 blueberry bushes this spring. Two are doing fine, but the third one is turning brown. Looks like it has some kind of disease or rust. Would like to try and save it as I have 3 different varieties.

July 21, 2011Q.Best Time to Fertilize Crepe Myrtles and Blueberries
When is best time to fertilize one year old Crepe Myrtles and Blueberries? Planted several Crepe Myrtles, all three sizes (miniature, medium size and larger trees) last year 2010. I need to know how often to water, fertilize and purne them. Also planted blueberries last year. I need to know the same information on pruning, fertilizing and watering. Thank you for taking time to answer my questions. Bill

July 23, 2011Q.Blueberries and Hazel Nuts
I have had two blueberry plants for 3 years now. Just one produces about 20 berries each year. That's it. Basically the same thing with the hazel nuts. The rest of the garden does well.

August 8, 2011Q.Pruning Blueberry Bushes
I recently bought a house with several blueberry bushes that are at least 8 ft. tall. They are so tall, in fact, that I would like to cut them back but not sure if I can. I live in Ga. and the winter is coming. What should I do to these plants so as not to have them die? We really love the blueberries they have.
