    "Planting
    Plant in October or March/April
    Before planting, dig in plenty of neutral or acidic organic matter: composted tree bark, leafmould, decomposing pine or spruce needles, or composted chopped bracken. Avoid simply lining the planting hole; mix well into soil
    Do not plant too deeply - all rhododendrons are surface-rooting and the roots should be just covered
    Apply at least 8cm (3in) mulch of chipped conifer bark or other acid material. The mulch should be well-aerated, not packed or firmed down
    Renew or replenish the mulch each spring when the soil is still moist"
