lack of growth

Question

I trimmed my purple fountain grass last fall and now it’s not coming up (June). Will it still come up and when? Is there anything I can do to help it come up? I have 4 of them that haven’t started yet.

These generally begin new growth in late spring to early summer. Could be that temps have not gotten warm enough yet for yours to emerge. Be patient. However, here is an article to help you determine if it is dead or just on a slow start: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/environmental/how-to-tell-if-a-plant-is-dead-and-how-to-recover-an-almost-dead-plant.htm
