I’ve had this two years and still no flowers - lots of huge leaves. Planted in an west facing border and gets around 6 hours of sunlight. In Scotland ....lots of light as by the sea.
Might need more sun. I had this in my last gadren planted in full sun and it flowered its socks off. A friend planted hers in shade and it grew very tall and lush but didn't flower.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

@Hosatfan now where did we get those seeds from😀. Mine are in flower now, going over a bit now, in my north front garden. Seem to like the shade.
When out with a special friend. Mine are ( mostly ) looking at their best now. All in full sun.
Sorry, photos got mixed up with quote. 1st photo 3 clumps in flower, 2nd photo , one clump in flower , 2 not. All seeds sown at the same time and all planted out on the same day
I moved a lot of mine 2 years ago and they are east facing so in shade all afternoon and are very happy. I have had then not flower well in previous years but I wondered if they had got way too congested and I hadn't been brutal enough cutting them back. When mine were in more sunshine and a dryer bed they would flop on a hot day so I'm glad they like it where they are now. I would say shade is def fine.
