I have one of these growing in a large pot. This is it's third year  it's getting to be a decent size but so far no blossom.  Is this to be expected?

    Have you fed it? I have one in a pot, must be about 10 years now and it always flowers.
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Hello Penny19

    Often classed as a conservatory plant in cold areas , Trachelospermum usually requires siting against a warm-wall with preferably a southerly aspect .
    Ultimately attaining anything up to 7m height and spread , maybe your plant is as yet too young to bear flowers .
    Not knowing your growing conditions / aspect of plant / type of soil etc. I'm afraid I can't be more helpful .

    It's in a sheltered south facing spot, gets good sun in high summer with a pergola to scramble up. It looks very healthy, just no flowers.🤔 It gets fed reasonably regularly.
