why my plant is loosing leaves and its leaves are browning?
I have bought it a few months ago and i still keep it in a container 2 liters large.Do you think I should change the container or is something wrong with the watering..i use tap water and I will try to use rain water from now on ..
Where I can find ericaceous compost ?I tried Homebase but I didn't find it.
Thank you

All good Garden Centres stock it. Definitely use rain water and also try watering on some Sequestrene.. Miraclegro do a plant food for acid loving plants with it in.
