What we are discussing this time will apply to azaleas, rhod odendrons, camellias and gar denias. It is common trouble with these plants and one that is not easy to clearly define in a short article. We will call it iron deficiency chlorosis and attempt' to clarify in simple terms. First, the importance of iron in the soil. Although iron is con sidered to be a minor element,' it is essential for the manufac ture of chorophyill, the green coloring matter in plants. If the iron becomes deficient, it is expressed as chlorosis in the leaves causing them to become yellowish, except along the mid rib and leaf veins. In advanced stages, the green color may dis appear from the mid-rib and veins and the entire leaf be comes almost white. What makes the iron unavail able to the plant? The pH of the soil is too high. In other words, the calcium (lime) content is too high and the soil is sweet. All of the plants in this group like an acid soil, the azaleas and rhododendrons being a little more sensitive than the camel lias and gardenias. Iron is availbale to the plant at a pH range of 5.5 to 6.0. At 6.5 the iron availability is reduced and at 7.0, it drops off sharply. To correct the iron deficiency two things may be done: have your soil tested and adjust the pH to the 5.5 to 6.0 range. This can be done by using sulphur to lower the pH and lime to raise it. This procedure will require some time to overcome the . chlorosis, but is the better meth od because the roots will then be i able to absorb the iron from the 1 soil. < There is also a quick method 3 of overcoming the trouble; by i foliar feeding. In this method j chelated (iron chelate) iron is us-1 i J ed as a spray. Chelating changes the Iron into a soluble form which is quickly absorbed by the leaves and stems when applied as a spray. This material can be iSUirchas ed from your local garden Supply center With fiin Instructions for «HXlftg and applying. It is sold under under different brand or trade hanies. Just be sure that you ask for iron chelate because there are also other chelated materials such as zinc.
