![comment comment](/profile/anges/images/150/profile_image_125190.jpeg)
So am I Sue! We've got lots of green in the garden but very little other colour 🧐 @lilybee
![comment comment](/profile/italydiva/images/150/profile_image_185079.jpeg)
Very promising! My camellia is in a large pot but hasn’t flowered, not even the tiniest buds, the last few years. Looks like it will be the same again this time around. I wondered if I need to add fresh ericacious compost but would be difficult. I can’t put it into a larger pot...not sure I could find one! I put fresh compost on top each year and add coffee grounds through the year. Not sure what I can do? 🤷♀️
![comment comment](/profile/juliesgarden/images/150/profile_image_1218.jpeg)
Oh I can’t wait Ang 👍🏻
![comment comment](/profile/anges/images/150/profile_image_125190.jpeg)
I keep mine well watered, mulched and feed it fertiliser for ericaceous plants in the Spring. @italydiva
![comment comment](/profile/italydiva/images/150/profile_image_185079.jpeg)
I shall definitely try that Ange. How often do you add the liquid fertiliser? What do you tend to mulch with?
![comment comment](/profile/anges/images/150/profile_image_125190.jpeg)
I just leave any fallen camellia leaves and top with recycled compost. I feed before they start flowering. They make their buds in summer time I believe so that's why they need plenty of water, especially in pots I suppose. You could mulch with bark too 🙂 @italydiva
![comment comment](/profile/italydiva/images/150/profile_image_185079.jpeg)
Great, thanks for that information. I think I may need to up my watering during the summer too. 😊 x
![comment comment](/profile/anges/images/150/profile_image_125190.jpeg)
I think the watering is key to the buds, but I'm not an expert!! 🧐😆 @italydiva

I wish I had the right soil to do that, I’d love to put mine in the ground 💗💗💗
![comment comment](/profile/anges/images/150/profile_image_125190.jpeg)
I just add ericaceous compost and feed to the soil to keep them happy @pelly 🙂💕
