Feed your Azaleas every two months with an acid type fertilizer (mir-acid) starting from the onset of new spring growth, until late summer.  If chlorosis occurs (yellow foliage with green veins), treat plants with a product containing chelated iron.

Azaleas need and thrive in acidic soils.  Ideal PH is 4-5.5.  Always take a soil test to determine PH before planting these plants in your lawn.  Once Azaleas are established and you have reached the correct PH levels, you may need to fertilize as much.

Have you ever seen the lovely sight of the "Dog Vomit Fungus" growing in a mulched area ? The Dog Vomit Fungus is not a fungus, but a slime mold. I guess calling it the "Dog Vomit Slime Mold" wasn't very appealing to the International Association of Slime Mold Naming Scientists (IASMNS). Anyway, its scientific name is Fuligo septica. Which, when roughly translated into english means, "sticky stuff on the bottom of Bob's shoe". The next stage in the life of this slime mold is quite depressing.
