Hi... my 2' X 2' boxwood really got damaged by our April snowstorms. Three/fourths of the leaves are brown and dropping off. Should I cut the whole shrub down to almost the ground and hope for new shoots? r should I just leave it alone? Also, my Irises dont do so well and I need advice. Which is the best fertilizer and when should it be put on? ALSO, what Ph do they need in their soil? Also, I could amend the soil. What is the best combination of soil mix? Perhaps the soil where they are is just depleted. Can I amend the soil by top dressing it? Would that work? Thanks so much for all your past help! Dorian |
