Jasmine Flowers Are Turning Brown
Fri, 16 Jul 2010 05:00:00 GMT
By Chez: Recently potted a 4ft climbing Jasmine along with placing a trellis behind the pot so the vine can climb. I read that this plant should not dry out, so I've been watering every 3-4 days. It's been about a week and a half since I potted the jasmine and I noticed today quite a few of the white flowers are turning brown already. I thought the tiny white flowers would last longer so I'm wondering if I need to water more? The plant sits underneath a patio overhang so it does not get direct sun, except for very late in the day. After 6-6:30 till the sun goes down.Wondering why so many of the flowers are turning brown?
Answer By The Flower Expert: Jasmine plants need part Sun to Full Sun.
Jasmine plants like about 1 inch of water per week. Probably it is getting less amount of sunlight and more water.

Planted Morning Glories In Morning Sun Locations
Wed, 14 Jul 2010 05:00:00 GMT
By Janice: I've planted morning glories, already started in pots from garden center, in morning sun locations. The leaves wilt after being exposed to sun for short period so I now shelter them with beach umbrella. Once in the shade they perk up. Should I move to shade spot or allow root system to grow more?
Answer By The Flower Expert: Actually MG's need full sun, but as you are saying that they are unable to tolerate the sun, keep them in the place where it gets some filtered sun for a couple of days and observe.
Water Rroses, They Droop
Wed, 14 Jul 2010 05:00:00 GMT
By Dottielea: Why everytime I water my roses, they droop. I have added miracle grow to my soil, which also has nutrients. What are they missing?
Answer By The Flower Expert: It is the best to use Miracle grow for knock out roses. But in the during summer using something like Miracle Grow can kill roses, especially if they aren't getting enough water. It is better to use only organic fertilizer or time-release granules during the summer time.
Knock out roses need enough nutrients, or water.
Try to water the plant deeply a day before you intend to apply fertilizers. Avoid fertilizing on a hot day as it tends to burn up the plant especially if the conditions are dry.
