Hi my young shop bought rowan planted this spring has not produced any red berries and yet all those around me are with red berries. Why might this be?
No flowers in early spring/summer. Quite a bit of growth and buds. Though some of the leaves are wilting a bit and browning on the edges. I am watering often.
No need to cut anything back @Jobbers4. If you get crossing or damaged branches in future years, you can remove them, but it's not necessary otherwise. No buds, no flowers, so no berries. Just keep it watered until autumn/winter, if it's dry where you are. It'll produce flowers and berries when it's ready
Mine has several clumps of berries, but it's still just a young tree. It was a small bunch of twigs when I moved in here six years ago. It was on the boundary and had obviously just been hacked back regularly with other random bits and pieces to keep it 'tidy'. I lifted it and let it grow on a bit, potted up, until I had a little spot for it.
All the rowans round here are laden, and have been for a while Lyn. Gorgeous
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
Ooh ok, im learning all the time. But there are a few off-shoots which are awkward and i imagine the tree would look more balanced with some clipping. But ill consider this more before i start cutting

That's surprising @Lyn, although they can take a few years from small saplings in my experience.
