This means they won’t grow well in soils that have a high pH - such soils are referred to as alkaline. Ericaceous plants include rhododendron, camellia, azalea, pieris, summer-flowering heathers (calluna) and even Japanese maples (acer) among others. This also applies to blueberries. If you try growing ericaceous plants in alkaline or limey soils, they produce yellow leaves - a condition known as lime-induced chlorosis, don’t grow or flower well and usually, finally die. The main reason for this is that they need plenty of iron and other soil nutrients that become insoluble or ‘locked up’ in the soil at high pH, so the plants can’t absorb them. If your soil is alkaline, you could try digging a large hole, lining it with plastic sheeting, making some drainage holes in the plastic, and then filling with a lime-free soil or ericaceous compost. Container growing is best.
