I have recently started chopping back some of my azaleas that were sitting in their garden centre pots as here in New Zealand it's 3 days from spring and starting to warm up. They are all Kurumes because it's hard to find Satsukis here other than gumpos (If anymore from NZ does know how to source some please let me know).
The plants have had various amounts of work done to the trunks and roots and repotted in to mainly pumice with some peat moss. (Since akadama or kanuma aren't accessible here)
The problem now is the leaves are starting to turn brown at the tips and curl inwards.
What is killing It these plants? Too much sun? Too much water? Too little water?
Should they be in full shade for a while to recover? Or more sun to help grow? Should they be watered heavily each day (since it's mostly pumice rather than their original cancer center potting mix) or am I overdoing it?
If they can be saved, I would be forever grateful!
All of my trees survived our wet winter and azaleas and other trees are pushing growth (kirin is full bloom) but I'm at a loss on the aftercare of this work now required!
