Chocolate cosmos not emerged yet

I have a chocolate cosmos that has been overwintered in my greenhouse. The tubers are firm but no sign of shoots. I'm in Berkshire and the greenhouse is exceeding 30C every day. Has anyone else's sprouted yet?

    Mine hasn't sprouted yet either but is in the ground, south east. Everything else around it has started to emerge including the dahlias and gladioli, wasn't sure if this was normal so just leaving it be.

    Mine was left in a big pot overwinter in an unheated GH - it's JUST sprouted (Midlands.)

    Mine's in the ground and in normal years doesn't show until early June and doesn't flower until July/Aug.  After this winter - I'm not expecting to see it at all this year - but fingers crossed.
