My first flower! I hope the others wake up. How can you tell if they are coming out of dormancy other than the obvious flower growth? Can you tell prior to the stalk shooting out? I’m trying to be patient lol.

They’ll be out of their dormancy once they start to split or flower. However, you should still wait to water until they have completely split and the old leaves have dried out.
