 59/ partridge berry, Mitchella repens

I grew the plants from foraged berries and they grow really well for a tiny plant but they have not flowered yet and it’s been almost two years. The leaves are rather peppery. I haven’t done anything with the leaves bc I want it to flower first. They’re growing in many different pots in different amounts of light except full sun. The shaded ones grow the most robust. I gave a little fert this summer to encourage 🌸 but no joy. No extra water than nature.
