How Do I Get My Hummingbird Vine to Blossom?

Question

I’ve had it for two years. It vines very well but no flowers. I live in Mn. I have sandy soil. I used sheep manure for fertilizer.I took your advice,gave it bone meal, still no flowers. Now what?

Answer 1

You may be lacking phosphorus, especially with the addiion of sheep manure which has a higher nitrogen content. If there is a lack of phosphorus in the soil, plants will have little to no blooms. You can either use a phosphorus rich fertilizer or add some bone meal to the soil.
