Is it too late? I burned some of my plants by getting Lime on the foliage due to laziness?
Question:Can I due anything to salvage them at this point?? They are perrenials.
Answers:
I'm assuming you used a pulverized or granular lime?
Anyway, just remove the burnt leaves, and take care of the perennials as is suggested on the label that came with them.
If no label came with them, just make sure they were planted with a quality compost, and preferably an organic fertilizer with micronutrients. Water them well and often and make sure the soil drains well. They'll flush out new growth soon enough provided they started with a strong root system.
Brake off all the burnt leaves.
if just the leaves are burnt, prune them away and water the plant well, and new leaves should grow in soon,
good luck, and don't be so lazy.
