Best Answer

The plant will bolt if it is hot and dry, it will bolt if the plant is 'old' between 8 and 15 years so divide the crowns every 4/5 years. Old fashioned varieties such as Victoria and MacDonald are more liable to bolt. Plants grown from seeds are more likely to bolt. Applying moderate amounts of fertilizer and well rotted compose will help
