Notizen:
Summary Rhododendrons were grown in containers for a period of six and a half years (six growth cycles) in soil mixes which contained liberal amounts of either CaCO3, Ca(OH)2 or CaSO4. No evidence was obtained to suggest that the plants were sensitive to liming of the soil or to excessive applications of calcium. The only reaction observed was a leaf chlorosis and veinal necrosis which developed for a brief period following the heavy application of CaSO4 in the fifth season. The application of Ca(OH)2 raised the pH throughout the soil profile to over 7, and CaSO4 induced a consistent increase in leaf calcium.
