Can someone please explain why my Rhodo & relatives are always chlorotic? I have them planted in various beds under different light & soil conditions. It seems like once a month I have to give them an iron foliar spray despite the regular soil amendments that I make. At least twice a growing season I mix Ironite and greensand into the top few inches of soil. Many folks that I know never treat their shrubs and they are gloriously dark green.
