    Hi there, we had a beautiful camelia which produced fabulous flowers every year for about 3 years. it steadily grew in its pot and all seemed well, we moved house 3 years ago (plant now 6 yrs old) and since we moved it has not produced a single bloom.

    How do I get it to flower again??
    very perplexed.

    it is not happy,
    are the leaves pale at all, does it bud and then they drop off?
    is it in the same pot and if so change the compost,[and move to bigger pot if needbe] using ericaceous compost, give it a feed of ericaceous liquid feed, including foliar spray
    The most likely explanation is aspect and location, most like dappled sunlight in the afternoon.
    PS did you move from a much warmer climate?
