I've got a pre-flag leaf.
I know "pre-flag?" But it's doing the same thing it did last year. It throws out a leaf that's about half the size, then another smaller one, then a flag, then a bloom. So maybe I'll have a bloom shortly!
This is on the same ice cream in the same pot that bloomed last year.

Sorry for the bad picture, but the sun was shining in my camera, and I was standing on a bench, and the leaf is about 5 feet over my head even standing on the bench. Hopefully you can see that the new leaf is rounded, blunt on the end, and only about 2 feet long.
