Ornamental plants

Roses, hydrangeas, conifers and perennials fall ill differently from vegetables — usually with mildew, black spot and spider mites. Feeding here is chosen for flower colour and soil pH, not for yield. Autumn treatments and winter protection decide how the plants come through the frost.
