    This plant had white flowers on it a few weeks ago and they quickly all fell off (2 days). I was wondering if maybe I am not watering it enough or too much. Can someone tell me what it is.

    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Thank you. Is it normal for all the flowers to fall off so quickly? Does it look ok?

    I don't know about the climate where you are (I am in the North of England), but I have a lilac in my garden and it flowers for several weeks, so two days does seem very short.

    Did you have a late frost by any chance?
