Now is a great time to plant the beautiful vireya rhododendron, which will grow almost anywhere in Australia. In the garden, a rich, slightly acidic soil with excellent drainage is essential, so build up garden beds rather than digging down into clay soils. Searles Azalea, Camellia & Gardenia Specialty Mix is ideal for this purpose. Vireyas also take well to being grown in pots using Searles Cymbidium Orchid Specialty Mix.
