Default Jasmine won't flower

Hi all

We have a jasmine plant in the back garden in a relatively sunny spot
but it hardly flowers.
Its been in for a couple of years now and is watered regularly. It gets
a feed every couple of weeks but the most we get is 1 or 2 flowers at a
time.

We live on the southcoast, so would have thought that it was warm
enough.

Anyone any ideas what we're doing wrong or could do better?



I have winter jasmine. It had been struggling along until I mulched
it--no additional fertilizer and lots of new growth. I won't know
until January if it will bloom for the first time, unless the deer eat
it to the ground like they did last winter.
