Q.Wilting azaleas
Our lawn service put mulch on our beds on a hot day and our azaleas started to wilt. was not home but I watered a few days later but it did not help. Now, near the end of summer the leaves have curled up but none have dropped. What should I do?
Sorry I don’t know how to upload a photo plus I don’t have an I-Phone.

What kind of mulch was this, and at what pH? It is likely that it threw the pH of the soil off, as this can be a common symptom.
Another concern will be a fungal infection that was brought about by the mulch. Do you notice any signs of infection such as black spots on leaves or stems? Photos will be very helpful here.
