I put it back outside this spring in full sun and the plant looks healthy and has alot of new growth but no blooms. I have a couple of plants I started from cuttings and they are blooming and flourishing. I have been fertilizing the plant regularly. Any suggestions?

The others are very nice, but the leaves are thinner or not as tall.
