    No, the glads will not rebloom this season. However, they should come back the following year without any problems.

    Don't cut those glads! After they bloom, it's the greenery that builds energy in the bulbs for the following year. Of course, if you plan to plant new corms every year, it doesn't matter.

    Blueberries need 4-7 years to really reach fruiting maturity. Before then, they don't fruit well. They will fruit some, just not as well as they will in the future.

    Grapes also need a few years before they can really produce.

    But, it may also be a lack of phosphorous or too much nitrogen. Adding some bone meal help with this to balance out the soil nutrients. It may also be an issue with sunlight. They need at least 5 hours of full sun to produce well.

    No, where you live you do not need to dig up the corms.

    Do not trim the leaves back until they turn yellow. They need the leaves to help them build energy for the next time they bloom.
