When can I expect birds foot trefoil to flower - like in this picture?

I planted seeds at least two months ago and the leaves are looking lovely, but no flowers yet. Is it down to lack of sunshine or what?

    As you've only just sown your seeds, it will flower next year.

    Mine have just started flowering in the last few days and I grew from seed this year. I planted quiet early, start of March I think.

    In the mean time enjoy the ones in the wild. Here’s one along the Anglesey coastal path.
