How many years does it take for an osmanthus tree to bloom? What is the reason for it not blooming?

1. How many years does it take to bloom?

1. Seeding seedlings: If the osmanthus seedlings are cultivated by the seeding method, it will take about 10 years to grow before it can bloom normally.

2. Cutting seedlings: Cutting plants can bloom slightly faster. After about 4 years of cultivation, it will have the ability to bloom.

3. Grafted seedlings: Grafted seedlings bloom the fastest. Generally, it will bloom 1-2 years after grafting. In addition, if the grafted variety is easy to bloom, such as Osmanthus fragrans, it is possible that it will bloom in the same year.

2. Why doesn't it bloom?

1. Insufficient light: It prefers sunlight and needs to receive a certain amount of sunlight and accumulate a certain amount of nutrients before it can bloom. If it does not receive light for a long time during maintenance, it may not bloom. At this time, just transplant it to a place with better light conditions and slowly maintain it for a period of time, and it will bloom again.

2. Improper fertilization: Before it enters the flowering period, it is necessary to apply fertilizer, and it cannot be applied only with nitrogen fertilizer, otherwise it may not bloom. At this time, just stop applying nitrogen fertilizer and apply some phosphorus fertilizer every 10-15 days, and it will bloom soon.
