I have bay tree that is...umm...about 20 yrs old and it has never ever produced even a single flower!? I wondering why not?
I just walked by one of the neighbour's bay trees and it is full of flower buds!?..and that tree is less than half of the age of mine!
Does anybody know if there is variety that may not flower? Surely even male trees will produce some sort of bud to produce pollen?
Or is lack of flowering/budding just cultural thing? My is growing slightly challenging place, but even then, it is healthy, doesn't suffer with frost bites or any other extremes...maybe it is too happy and needs more challenging...?
Not that I need my bay to flower...just feeling curious and slightly like I'm missing something...
Any ideas?
