    Mine also doesn't seem to flower.
    I think it is because mine doesn't produce fresh corms (on top of the previous season's) so it is just old and moribund.

    I have seen some massive flowering clumps at the Cambridge Botanic Gardens.

    Mine is in the garden, but for some reason it isn't happy.
