My potted sun star plant began growing leaves about 2 months ago but there is still no sign of a flower stalk. (I was given this plant last Mother's Day while it was in bloom.) How long does it normally take to bloom? The leaves are healthy, but I wonder if I should have separated the bulbs and repotted since the leaf clusters are thick and close together.

I would wait a bit if I were you. They do prefer to be a little dry.
I do not think I would repot until after the blooming period or it may not bloom this year.
Here are some basic care tips.
Water: Keep planting mix moist.

Check to be sure soil is slightly moist, maybe mist spray during the day, and do not use regular tap water unless you let water rest in open container for 24 hours. Use pot with excellent drainage.
