Wintergreen (Gaultheria Procumbens) seldom need fertilization, but should be in well drained soil, rich in organic matter, which a PH of 5.5-6.5. If needed to lower the PH levels in the surrounding soil, you could consider using Miracle-Gro Miracid Plant Food as directed on the label to increase the acidity levels. You could also contact the master gardener at your local extension office for more specific information on caring for Wintergreen plants.
