A new gardening question of the day appears every day of the year on the front page of Almanac.com. Below is the answer to one of the questions from our Gardening Questions and Answers Archive where you can find over 400 more gardening questions (with answers!).
How can I get my mock orange bush to bloom?
If you've had trouble with blooms, you must have transplanted the bush in recent years. Mock oranges really hate being moved, but they recover in two or three years. You may just have to be patient. Don't prune this bush. It's very happy being left alone, except for taking off the occasional dead branch, or winter thinning if it gets totally out of hand. Otherwise, ignore your bush and you'll probably have blooms soon!
