    Just a matter of time I should think. If it looks healthy there can't be anything much wrong with it. Your'e not feeding it nitrogen to encouraging leaves at the expense of flowers are you?

  • We put some on the grass do you think it may have blown , we will avoid doing it in future , but last year we applied it bcause the grass needed help and it looks healthy again now .

    If the tree is growing in the grass and the fertiliser was applied round it then it may have had an effect. I wouldn't worry about it. It'll flower eventually

    How do you encourage  growth on a sheerwater seedling rowan tree ? I have some that got damaged slightly by a strimmer-I cut back to good wood and applied sealant-I am now given to understand this is an outdated treatment,in fact it may hinder recovery-hence the enquiry -what can I do to promote or encourage this type of trees recovery? Thanks 

  • My Rowan tree flowers really well but produces no berries. Why?

    glad to say my rowan trees are laden down with berries, they are in clay soil, but they are 15 years old  image

  • It seems to me that every rowan, all over the UK (it was the same in Plymouth as in Scotland) is absolutely laden with berries this year.     

     

    Why is that?   Does it indicate a mild winter a-coming, or a frosty one?

  • Mine is bursting with berries too Dick. I'm new to all of this so don't know what the appearance of berries or not is supposed to mean but I'm hoping it means a mild winter and not another one like last year. I've been so busy admiring how pretty they look and ooh aren't we lucky I didn't for a minute stop to consider that it might be a foreteller of doom image

    It means that we have had a nice hot summer and all those pollinating insects have been able to get out and about and do their stuff. Unlike last year when rain stopped play and we had hardly any berries as a result.
