No flowers on my Hellebores

Question from Julia Warnes

Hi,
I bought some young Helleborus Double Ellen Picotee last year with the hope that they would flower this winter/spring. The plants are quite large and very vigorous and still growing really well but no sign of any flowers. They just seem to be getting bigger but just foliage.
Shall I just leave them and see what happens next year?
Thanks very much - Julia
