Planting
Improve drainage and acidity by amending the soil with organic matter, such as peat moss, compost, or pine bark, before planting. Thoroughly mix these amendments into the soil. Create a hole that is wider and slightly shallower than the root ball. Carefully remove the plant from its container and gently loosen the roots if they are tightly bound. Place the rhododendron in the center of the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball aligns with the soil surface. Gently pack the soil mixture around the roots, removing any air pockets. Fully water the plant to settle the soil. Apply a layer of organic mulch, like pine straw or shredded bark, around the base of the plant to preserve moisture, regulate soil temperature, and control weed growth. To promote deep root growth, water deeply but infrequently, as rhododendrons have shallow roots and require consistent moisture, particularly during dry periods.
