There are several factors
affecting the fruiting Of the
Firethorn. If the plant is Of
good size It may need both
pruning and feeding to slim
ulate flower bud formation.
However, the shy fruiting
may be due to disease-the
common apple scab greatly
reduces the display of fruit
unless controlled. Firethorn
that must compete with
maple tree roots generally
are not very productive. The
scab may be controlled by
using one Of the all-purpose
dusts or sprays during the
Towering season.

lem licked" but now the
bush is browner than ever.

AnStDer
1t would appear the azalea
is suffering from competition
with tree roots or some other
cause of lack Of moisture and
food. 1t might pay to lift the
bush in the spring and en-
rich the soil with peatmoss
and compost. There is an
other possibility-if the CEN
ter of the bush should have
an accumulation Of dead
leaves, they should be cleaned
out and the area sprayed with
ferbam or similar fungicide.
