Our knowledgeable staff here at Garden-Ville are available to answer many of the questions you might have about gardens, landscaping, and trees. Many problems with plants, however, cannot be responsibly diagnosed other than in person. We're located in central Texas and may not be familiar with the details of gardening in very different climate or soil zones. One of the guiding principles of organic growing is adapting methods to the particularites of local soil and climate. With that in mind we'll do our best to answer your question, but if we can't we'll be happy to help you find the appropriate resources or professionals in your area.

Three years ago we planted 4 crepe myrtle minature shrubs. They bloomed the first year but not the last two. Leaves are mostly green but then turn a little yellow and no blooms. I need to know what fertilizer to use. We live in Round Rock and have put good soil in the beds. Any suggestions?

Get a bag of 7-2-2 fertilizer and a bag of greensand. Put them both out at a rate of 20 pounds per 1000 square feet and water deeply around the trees. If you have not mulched around the trees it would probably be a good idea to do that to help retain moisture and keep the soil temperature cooler.
