I had set them out in the ground and some wild yellow flowers took them over and shaded them out. So I move 2 plants into pots I hope I can get one of them to bloom before summer is over so I can get some. I also planted holly hocks plants but no flowers on them either. I am not having much luck. So much rain and a lot of heat.<br /><br />Love you bunches. <br />vickit43https://www.blogger.com/profile/13323200977207915004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-90946750477420565122017-07-08T16:26:23.880-07:002017-07-08T16:26:23.880-07:00Such lovely photos and thoughts indeed.

A year or maybe two of the leaves feeding the bulb may be needed to get some flowers going for you. Some bone meal will give them a big boost too.<br /><br />Gardening is a great teacher of patience.

I have a white one, well actually three plants because it put out two new stems this spring, and they have grown taller than me. Each plant has from three to five buds.
