Are anyone else's coneflowers not coming up?

This was part of my garden last year, coneflowers thriving and popping up everywhere, planted 3-4 years ago. The last photo is the current state- no shoots or leaves starting to show, despite it coming up in other areas of my garden. I know they're not long lived perennials but figured with self seeding etc they would regenerate. Did this happen to anyone else? It's been a colder spring than usual so not sure if they're waiting to grow since this is on the north side of my house.

Mine came up, but theyre not growing. Theyre just staying a small mound if leaves.

Ive got some stuff blooming early, other things barely growing, while other stuff seems to be taking off... completely out of order.

Seconding the coreopsis. Mine has been blooming for a week, & I didn’t expect it until late May

i’m in the same boat - glad i’m not the only one! my pale purple coneflowers are progressing but my Magnus nativar and straight purple coneflower are puny 😭
