Jasmine not flowering
« on: March 25, 2007, 16:13 »
Hi all,

I have a jasmine clotted cream that is supposed to flower in the summer. It has grown about 7ft and is a few years old, despite that it has never flowered.

I have talked to two other friends who have the same plant and they have the same problem. My yellow winter jasmine flowers just fine.

Any ideas?

(it is trained up a wall and on clay-ish soil)
Organic :)

take a hedge trimmer and carefully knock it back by running the clippers from the bottom to the top ..d0ont  take more than an inch off.. this should invigorate it .then feed it with some nice compost/manure ,it can get a nip from a late frost and the flower buds will fall off .not a lot ya can do other than lay a lump fleece over it on real cold nights .hope that helps  :wink:

Just found this article have a look it might help.
