Peruvian Lilies

My sister planted the Peruvian Lilies 3 years ago. She always gets lots of healthy greenery but no flowers. My question is why has there been no blooms? We live in Victoria, BC Canada.

Though these plants need fertilizer, make sure the application is a balanced formula.
Excess nitrogen can inhibit flower.
Try adding some phosphorous to promote flowering.
Bone Meal is a good way to do this.
