Even if they don't bloom it is nice to see the first-years growing and think about what they will eventually become, isn't it?
I thought for sure a fan has to mature quite a bit and show some significant growth before one could expect it to bloom. But that plant in the last photo I posted here sure blows that out of the water! I just can't believe it! This plant is supposed to have 5" blooms on 24" scapes. Right now its largest leaf is only 3/8" wide and about 6" long. This is amazing to me
