One of our neighbors insists on never pruning or feeding their Jackmanii, in full sun, and they get a few measly blooms on top and they're happy so I say nothing. A friend "thinks" hers may be Jackmanii but it hasn't bloomed in so long she can't recall the color - she's never pruned it or fed it.

Contrast that with the constant feeding ours gets from the compost and the fact we cut it back by 12' a few times each summer. Here's the cuttings on the brick and that was taken July 8th and it desperately needs another 12' removed.
