Althea Tree...


Question
I have one approximately 4 ft in a pot on the pool deck recently purchased.Lots of sun. Live in middle Georgia. Tree looks droopy although it is watered every other day.Is the problem perhaps being potted?Thinking of moving to a 90 ft long newly developed bed...full sun .. Thx for your input.

Answer
Donna,

I would recommend that you cut back on the watering to every three to four days. I think that the soil in the pot is staying too moist for the tree.

If you wish to move it, wait until the fall when it goes dormant, this will give it the best chance of survival.

Good luck,
Ed Gulliksen
