| I've had two yellow trumpet vines for 3 years now and each of the 3 summers they outdo themselves in greenery, growing to up to a healthy 20 feet but have never bloomed. I fertilized this spring and summer but still no blooms. I've been advised by a local nursery that they sometimes can take 3-5 years to become established. Is there any hope that these will ever bloom? |

| Trumpet vines do not like to be fertilized. That may be your problem. Just ignore it next year, and I bet it will do much better. Following is a link to a three year old trumpet vine I have. http://inlinethumb01.webshots.com/41472/2731714600056578912S600x600Q85 .jpg |
