While we're on the topic of Frangipanis, What kind of conditions might cause
one not to flower? I planted a red flowering one last year towards the end of winter & while it's got plenty of healthy looking leaves, there are no flowers. "Charlie Wong" wrote in message ... Anyone know when it is best to prune Frangipanis? I'm on the east Coast of Australia. |

I'm not absolutely sure, but I've got a pink-flowering one that's in the shade of a Brush Box. I reckon it's not getting enough sunlight hours per day to flower. My neighbour has two beauties, not five metres away from this tree and they flower prolifically - they're in full sun! -- Trish {|:-} Newcastle, NSW, Australia |

It could be lack of sun I suppose. Mine is in full sun from about 12-2pm
onwards. The tree is in sandy, well draining soil that isn't all that rich in nutrients, however it does regularly get a dose of fish emulsion & seasol. I also spread soil improver on the garden bed perhaps a couple of months ago. "Trish Brown" wrote in message ...

Do not over fertilise with Nitrogen based fertilisers, when flowering starts & just prior use poassium based fertiliser Robby |

If you break a stick off a tree and plant it, you won't get flowers for at least 2 years, more likely 3, or sometimes 4, in my experience.
