I cut it back to about 12" a little later this year than the last two. Now it hasn't bloomed at all this year. Did I kill it? [Eek!]

Or will it just not bloom this year and come back next year [Big Grin]

plants do not work from a calendar. different conditions during different years may = different bloom time.

give it time. also, fertilize to help.

I love the sweet scents wafting in the breeze. I stop to admire the vibrant colors of all living things. And people think me odd. Then ODD I am!!!

Thanks, I was really afraid I killed my favorite shrub! It is just beautiful when in bloom. [clappy]
