Flower PowerSummer flowering shrubs such as philadelphus, jasmine and weigela will benefit if you cut back flowering shoots to strong new growth immediately after all the flowers have faded.
Encouraging new growth ensures the plant carries flowers all over the plant instead of just at the top. To give shrubs the energy to produce plenty of flower bearing stems, dress around the roots with a slow release food like Miracle-Gro Slow Release Rose & Shrub food. This contains a controlled release plant food that will supply all the major nutrients over the next six months to ensure good sturdy growth.
