Compost question

ariadna.bakhmatova

I’ve got 2 bags of this compost but not planning to plant any azaleas, camellias or rhododendrons, can I use it for anything else at all?

It's ericaceous compost, so ideal for anything that likes acid soil, eg blueberries, and OK for anything that will tolerate acidic or lime-free soil.

thank  you! I've just bought these plants , do you think this compost would suit any of them?
- aucuba
- hebe red edge
- euonymus
- conifers
- sedum

thanks so much!

Hebe and euonymus would be ok, the others might too but I don't know them as well!

thank you! will await for the recommendations from the others!

Conifers will love the ericaceous aspect but the flower feeding element will be wasted on them.   Aucuba and euonymus don't care about soil acidity of alkalinity.

thanks! so i can definitely use the ericaceous compost for aucuba, hebe and euonymus?

Yes, it won't harm any plant except one that actively needs lime to stay healthy, like brassicas, but it's just possibly a waste of a specific product that may bear a premium price.
