Hallo. Ich habe vor ein paar Monaten Prärie -Blazing -Star gepflanzt. Sollte ich sie sein oder die Zwiebeln des ersten Jahres schneiden lassen, bevor sie blühen?

Some plants better establish themselves if they don’t focus on flowering. Not sure if this is one of them.
I would let them flower, but you can deadhead when it’s done so no energy goes to producing seed. I planted some last year and let them flower/seed and they look great. Corms like liatris aren’t focused on establishing an extensive root system
I would just let it do its thing! It’s been a few months, so they definitely had substantial time to focus on root establishment and harnessing energy. I have a few small clumps of Liatris spicata around that I planted last summer, and they were beginning to flower when I planted them, then let them do their thing, and they continued to bloom just fine! They came back this year and have flourished! They definitely had some expendable energy!
