I bought 2 "cloned" Dr Seuss from a lady here in Seattle. They were about 4 feet tall in June. I moved them each into a 28" pot. They are now nearly 7 feet tall. There are still Big leaves ( I assume these are the juveniles?) And there are new leaves coming in that are smaller. Do I need to wait (if so how long) for the blooms to come in? I've been feeding them Luminox(sp) since I heard they were heavy feeder?
I have another brug called Double Whites that are in a 14" pot, and they are coming in with a second group of flowers.( bought this one from a nursery). Its only about 4 feet tall. I know it must be due to pot size. They came in a 6 inch pot when I bought them. They are on the same feeding schedule and watering.
So is there something I should do to get them Seusses to bloom?
