Unless you live in a frost trap, winter jasmine should flower with
you in most years. I can't tell you whether it thrives on heavy
soils, but you may not have one.

My guess is that the reluctance to flower is due to being in a
pot. Incidentally, it self-layers with abandon, so you don't have
to choose between having it in a pot and in the garden, and you
can try it in various places.
