    HI
    I bought an indoor Jasmine a while back and it has finished flowering now. The scent was lovely and it has enjoyed being in a sunny conservatory. ( when the sun is out that is!!)

    It is now giving off several long shoots which I am tying into the hoop that it came with.

    What should I do to encourage it to flower again? I was wondering of i should cut it back at all....

    THanks!

    Just continue to look after it :)

    If your plant gets about 4-6 hours of strong sunlight a day, is pruned and well watered, you will not generally have to worry about problems with blooming.

    I have one of these and love the fragrance of it's flowers. I bought it in bloom last year and haven't done anything to it other than keeping it watered and in light. I hadn't really thought about it, but this year when seeing some of the flowers starting I gave it a couple of doses of indoor plant fertilizer and it flowered again beautifully. With the long shoots I have just wound them around the wire hoop - may not be the 'right' thing to do - but has worked for this one.

    Me to...In the conservatory a few years ago. The fragrance would fill the whole house, it was amazing. A little light pruning every year and it was there for years but got to big as all plants do before I had to get rid,
