Hi,
My bluebells, which were bought from a local GC, were planted out and
flowered last year. This year, they have produced leaves but no flowers. Any
clues why this might be?? As far as I know, they are healthy enough, fed and
watered enough, and are in full sun with a dappling of shade.

I would guess they're just recovering from being planted out. It seems
to take them a year or two to settle down at least. They would have
flowered last year because they would have been brought on in optimal
conditions, fed, etc.

If anything it might be a bit sunny for them, but I would have thought
they would cope with "full sun with a dappling of shade". I'd guess
they'll flower OK next year.
