No flowers in my Hostas

Can any one advise me why my Hostas are really magnificent as far as leaves are concerned but no flower stems are appearing. I grow them in a rectangle shaped pot, could they be pot bound or could it be slugs. I have used some slug pellets but only recently.

    I've none on mine either but I hadn't noticed till you said. image 

    I'm not that keen on the flowers, the leaves have it for me.

    I'm going to snip mine off. They'll be a muddy lilac colour and drop petals on the leaves which I will have to pick off. I understand that some have quite nice flowers, but definitely not mine.

    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Some of mine have been in flower for a couple of weeks, others either still have no flower stems or they aren't in flower.  Just different flowering times I presume.

    No sign of flowers on any of mine but I'm in the north. As KT53 says - they might just not be ready to flower yet  image

    I don't care for the flowers though, apart from the  white ones. I take all the lilac ones off image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    I don't like the flowers anyway, who needs flowers! image
