Do you prune it regularly? If so, that's your problem. They flower on
last year's old wood, so if you cut it hard back each spring, for
example, there's no old wood left for flowering. The suggested method
which keeps it tidy but still allows plenty of flower is to remove
about a third of the oldest growth each year from the base, so
allowing new growth to come up from below.
