I have an azalea in a pot that is just coming into flower. What can I use to feed it other than buying an ericaceous feed?

Search for"how to grow azaleas". There is a lot of info there, good luck.
I was told epsom salt. Good Luck!

First - you don't want to feed Azaleas until after they finish with their blooming. After that - coffee grounds and leftover brewed coffee!
Use pickle juice; when the pickles are gone fill the jar with water, shake well and pour on the soil. I used this for years while living in Florida, after my neighbor gave me his secret.
You can use oak leaves and pines needles raked around your plants to help acidfy the soil. This worked fine for me for years. jjs. W. Palm Beach, FL
