I have a rhododendron which got very badly scorched during the hot days of Jan. The leaves have curled up and the tree appears in part to be dead. Can I prune it back in the hope that it will rejuvenate. A part of the tree that was shaded seems ok.
Thanks

Yes. They are hard to kill. It may enjoy a drink though.
