For the past two years I haven't bad any flowers on my jasmine. It's in a
sheltered position, full sun. Does anyone have any advice, please, on how
to persuade it to flower this summer?

Thanks.


My jasmine has been one of my few successes.
I bought a small one in flower around christmas time in 2002. Repotted it in
spring and left it in a very sheltered position (sheltered from the sun as
well as the rest of the weather until late autumn 2003. I brought it into
the warmth of the kitchen (not that warm) around this time and it flowered
for me just after christmas. Did the same the following year and it is
currently rewarding me with the most delicious smelling flowers. Which is
all the better for it being such a dismal time of the year.
Sorry this is no use to someone who has it planted in the ground. Do be
aware, as you mentioned the full sun, of the problem of frost and early
sunlight damaging flower buds. I dont know the full story i am just aware it
is an issue.
