What causes No or Sparse Flowering?
Lack of blooms can be due to insufficient light, excessive nitrogen fertilizer (which promotes leaf growth over flowers), or the plant not being mature enough (typically flowering after 4-5 years). [2, 3, 4, 21, 30, 31]
How to treat No or Sparse Flowering
Relocate the plant to a spot receiving at least 4-6 hours of direct or bright filtered sunlight daily, and switch to a phosphorus-rich organic fertilizer like bone meal or rock phosphate. [3, 4, 11, 21, 30]
How to prevent No or Sparse Flowering
Provide ample bright light, use a balanced organic fertilizer that supports flowering, and understand that the plant needs to reach maturity to bloom. [3, 4, 30]
