Default When do Philadelphuses flower?


asked:
Has anyone got one growing that can lend me some tips on
how to make it flower?

Yes, don't prune way the young shoots as these will have the flowers for the
following year. Only cut out the old branches that have had flowers. The
same rule applies with Hydrangeas. Philadelphus flowers June to July.
