Give it a shot or two of Miracle Grow for flowering plants. Worked for me on some stubborn plants.

Re: Pachypodium lamerei
What I didn't expect is the long flowering period. Longer than Plumeria in my modestly warm summers P. namaquanum on the other hand flowers for me about three days and then its wait till next year.
