How to use Debco Camellia & Azalea Mix
 |
Assemble your plants to be repotted, along with fresh containers and Debco Camellia & Azalea Mix. |
 |
Give each plant a thorough watering
an hour or so in advance, and allow to drain. |
 |
Select a clean container approximately 25 mm wider than the original and partly fill with Debco Camellia & Azalea Mix, straight from the bag. |
 |
Turn the plant out of its old
container. Loosen root ball gently and remove any rotten or
entirely dried out roots. |
 |
Position the plant in the centre
of the new container. Check the level and fill with new mix. |
 |
Shake the container gently by
tapping the bottom on the ground to allow mix to settle.
Do not firm or pack down. Normal watering will soon give all
the firming needed. |
 |
Initial soaking after potting
is essential. |
 |
Protect plant from heat and
strong sunlight for a few days, and keep moist. |
Hints
To save time, re-pot as many plants as possible
at the one time. Make sure that you close the bag tightly after
use to keep moist. Store in a cool, dry location. |
