    @ilovemontydon I am also growing mine near a tree so I may have a go at cuttings and see if it does better in a damper spot, but it is not in the way so it can stay.

    @christopher2 I will have a go at giving it some extra food.

    @Bookertoo that is the problem do you need to be patient or are you doing something wrong.

    I am confused now to prune or not to pruneimage

    @christopher2 when do I prune?

    Thanks for your advice.

  • I transferred an old plant into a large pot which, although it looks v healthy. has still not flowered after five years.  Am I waiting in vain?

    I have a fair few HS in my garden a few in large planters, i water them twice a week in growing season and one of the watering's i include a liquid rose feed basically i treat it in the same way as my Clematis, i always have an abundance of flowers, my main problem is how fast and big they grow, will need to give them all a good hair cut come March/April..

    Don't know if it's the weather or just that I've ignored it but it's blooming it's socks off this year!

    I've just discovered this site, lots of good info hereimage my honeysuckle hasn't flowered for many years but it's next to a eucalyptus, which may explain a lot! I'll give it a feed and some water and see what happens!
