Schultz has a fertilizer called BloomPlus. I tried it on some of my
reluctant bloomers and it seemed to kick them into flower production. Also,
maybe it would appreciate a repotting with new dirt. Eugenia, zone 6, two

I have a lipstick plant (aeschynanthus lobbianus) hanging in the corner
of
my dining room that has yet to bloom. About 5 years ago I had one that
bloomed beautifully twice a year. No signs of buds. Any idea why it may
not be blooming? I've had it for about 8 months. It seems healthy and
is
in an area that doesn't get too much sun.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

They are related to african violets, they may prefer bottom watering.
My friend stopped my blooming AV in it's tracks with top watering.
