Question Hi Jim,
I have had a crape myrtle for aprox 3 years and it never blooms. Each year I hope it will be the year it blooms but it never does. Do you have any ideas? Thank You Becky
Answer Too things that slow crept myrtle from blooming--not enough sunlight and the need for fertilizer, Not much you can do about the sunlight beyond moving the tree and this may cause more damage than it is worth. I would fertilize the tree with 10-10-10 fertilizer at the rate of 1 lb of fertilizer per inch of trunk diameter scattered around the tree and watered in good. Fertilize just before a rain storm and you will not need to water.
