I wanted to show y'all the leaves on my Mele Pa Bowman. I hope you can see them cleary in the picture. They look like Mickey Mouse leaves. I have the regular leaf and then it has two smaller dog ear leaves close to the base. I have several of these on the plant.
Clare, I read what you said about the high phosphorus fertilizer in CHantell's thread and I tend to agree with you. I have fertilized heavily this year and it has not made any difference. In fact, I have had less blooms this year than I have had in previous years. I have fertilized this particular plant frequently and I have not had one bloom on it. It usually is a dependable bloomer.
