Stylidium debile

Anyone know how long it takes for Stylidium debile to start sending up flower stalks?
 
No!!!!!! And I've had these for about a year:

When I got mine it did not take long at all for the plant to fill the pot and start sending up massive amounts of flowers. The stalks themselves just get longer and longer with more flowers. They where so long I cut all the flower stalks off around the middle of summer.
I noticed a week or so ago that the plants are sending up several stalks again.

ive only had mine a week and it has a flower shoot about 4 inches tall.
 
Okay... what am I doing wrong....? I've been told to treat them like a typical sundew, in terms of light, media, and temps. So I treat them like a capensis but they don't flower like a capensis.
 
I've had mine for 2 months or so and they are really taking off now producing growth similar to jimscott's picture above. But no sign of flower stalks. I understand others may have received their plants as mature plants. Anyone above grow them from root offshoots and take note of how long it took to flower?
 
i have them growing in tropical conditions but i got a mature division and now there are 2 flower stalks.
 
How old do they have to be? Mine are almost a year old.
 
Flowers!

Well, as crazy as it is, after making this post, my stylidium debile began to flower. See the attached pictures.

Should this be moved to the quasi carnivores? Stylidium is quasicarnivorous anyway ahahhaha. Beautiful xantius. Hope we can work out that trade....I'd really like to grow some of these
