Although sometimes the case of a non flowering wisteria can be over feeding with a high nitrate feed creating too much green growth and no flower buds.<\/p>\n<p>If feeding your wisteria does not induce flowering then another technique is to restrict the plants water uptake in early spring by lightly cutting around the main lower stem with a sharp knife. Cutting three quarters around the stem 2mm into the stem will interrupt the flower of sap\/ water in the plant and often induce flowering bud formatting as a survival response.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Finally unfortunately, a number of Wisteria have been propagated from parent plants that have never flowered that is why it is important that you purchase a plant that is flowering or has been seen to flower.<\/p>\n<p>For further advice on a non flowering period ask your <a href=\"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/mygardenteam\/\">GardenAdvice MyGardenTeam<\/a> gardener for advice&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to treat a non flowering wisteria&nbsp; If your Wisteria does not flower by July this year &nbsp;try cutting it back and feeding it with a liquid tomato food which contains lots of potash&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3977,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-33","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-general-advice"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3977"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/gardening-tips\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
