Gardeners. For the second year, my Bowl of Beauty has produced one measly flower amid a swathe of green leaves. How do i get it to earn it's spot the garden? Thanks
My first question would be is it getting enough sun ? It doesn't have to be in full sun all day long, but it does need quite a bit. Also how deep is it planted, it only needs to be about 2.5cms deep. I have a Bowl of Beauty in a pot by the house wall as it's waiting to go in the ground. It has had hardly any sun and has only produced one bud like yours.
It's tempting to put them in a border crowded with other plants, where they look lovely, but you will only get flowers NEXT year if they get lots of sun this year, and that seems to mean at the soil level, not just the leaves. Make sure your Bowl of Beauty isn't crowded or shaded by other plants and gets lots of light.
