Established acid-loving plants should be fed twice yearly, spring and late fall. Use half the recommended rate in the fall. If the area to be fed is mulched, it is preferable to remove the mulch, feed, and then restore the mulch on top of the application of plant food. If not possible, then double all recommended feeding rates.
