My formosanums have started last week. Here's one clump.

Last year one bloomed in late June while the others waited til August. This is normal. I read that "they know when to bloom" and will do so when they're ready--sometimes very early but mostly late.

The yellowing is due to the soil being very thin and the bulbs not being as deep as they would prefer.
