I need some help...

For some reason I just cannot keep my plants alive! I live in an aprtment, and I have about 5 plants that are nearly dying... I water them, feed them...I even talk to them and still, they just wanna curl over!

I have 3 lucky (no so lucky I tell you!) trees and 2 Yukkas... apparantly these plants should be the easiest to maintain right?

Any advise on this would be fantactic! I just dont know what I am doing wrong.

I find that my success in keeping trees and plants alive depends on where you buy them from.

I'm trying my luck with azaleas in pots, I used to buy them from markets - you know the cheap /bargain type - it's not worth it! My suggestion is to go to an established Nursery - in your area. If the nursery is in your area, the plants are already accustomed to the seasons temperature etc... Also Nursery people are good to ask advice - you can generally bring a plant back if it's not doing so good and ask advice -they are very knowledgable.

Good luck...and happy gardening!
