Plants are blooming ... without flowers :(

If they did not have blooms on them when you planted, many types will bloom after August. If you have a type that is supposed to bloom in the Spring, they might be busy establishing themselves and/or they were not getting enough sun during the time the blooms would have set. What is the soil pH? Do you have a nutrient analysis? I would apply a high phosphorous fertilizer along the lines of bone meal to encourage blooms if they still do not bloom in the fall.

Edit: a good short page on fertilizers.

I am not sure what the pH is. At our old house, whatever we planted would bloom beautifully with not much care and attention as long as I regularly watered and fed them with food sticks. There, most of our plants were in the front of the house facing the eastern sun but half of the yard was in the shade ... indirectly sunlight. Here the garden is in the back facing east as well but with full sun.

Thanks for the link and suggestions, everyone.
