Non-Chemical Management
- In spring, prune away dead wood all the way back to healthy, green wood. Do not prune live wood.
- Use loose organic mulch to maintain soil moisture and protect from extreme cold.
- Transplant affected camellias to shady and calm areas, or provide further shading in present areas.
- Do not fertilize, prune, or water heavily late in the season.
- Water during fall and early winter dry spells; pay attention to plants under roof overhangs or other dry areas.
