    Hello, RYDALL. We just recently had this question asked and the correct time to do it is May, conveniently enough!

    You're lucky Rich. I love hebes and before we moved I had several which took turns to flower. So far this year the 2 I have now have done nothing. Perhaps they are building themselves up for next year [​IMG]
