    Hi All,

    I have two , one's in the border about 20 feet/ 6 metres the other is in a huge terracotta bowl so more like a bonsai tree but much bigger , both have produced very little flower this year

    Any one have the same problem ?

    My Kojo no Mai produced few flowers this year. It is now about 10 feet tall (they are only supposed to grow to 5 or 6 feet) I have a Japanese Flowering Apricot growing through it and the small pink flowers of the Apricot look good with the white of the Kojo if only for a very short period
    The pic is from this year IMG_2081B.jpg

    and this shows the shrub in flower with the Apricot 8 years ago
