By Tom MacCubbin Verified| Orlando Sentinel Verified Question: Clumps of our new blackberry lilies have died back during the winter. All that is left are clusters of leaves near the ground and dead shoots. What should I do? Answer: In about two to three months you should have new flushes of flowers but first you need to do a little pruning. Blackberry lilies are true perennials and decline during the cooler months. They get their name from the fruit that forms after flowering resembling blackberries.
By Tom MacCubbin Verified| Orlando Sentinel Verified Question: We seem to remember when many yards had azaleas but now there appears to be just a few. Are azaleas hard to grow here in Central Florida? Answer: Many residents also remember spring azalea sales at nurseries and parking lots offered by garden clubs and a number of societies. Regretfully many gardeners were not successful with their plantings and the enthusiasm for azaleas has dwindled. Local soils are exceptionally sandy and not adjusted to the acidity preferred by azaleas.
