Not getting enough sun! Can you take outside? If not, get it a grow light.- See 1 previous

Pinch the new growth back just above the third set of leaves. Remove the bottom leaves from the cuttings and insert the stems into the soil until the leaves are laying on the soil. Your mature plants should bloom and you should get new plants from your cuttings. -

Make sure they aren't rootbound. Replant in larger pot, adding soil with fertilizer. Place outside in partial sun. -

I don’t think they bloom indoors. Fertilize, sun and water -

FEED ME ! I think this is all you really need to do, my Mother had a lot of African Violets and Christmas Cactus, neither of which were blooming. I started giving them a good drink of Miracle Grow every week and they are ALL in bloom and never looked better. Try it, what do you have to loose at this point from the looks of things. I purchased the packets that you add to a gal jug of water, I would take her watering can(sm. plastic one) fill it half way with the fertilizer, and the rest of the way with just water, and it did the trick. Hope this helps. -

My first thought was when was the last time the soil was changed? Then I would also want to know why it's sitting in what appears to be shade? I would recommend a soil change. If it's been in that pot for awhile, general 'rule of thumb' is to only take it's new pot up by 2". IF your soil is new/good try adding a Miracle Gro food with/a high middle number for blooms
PLEASE remember that with any plant food/fertilizer LESS is always more. Good luck darlin'

I agree with most suggestions - good soil, sun and Miracle grow. Place outside if you can. They will bloom indoors, but they must be in lots of light. I learned if plants get leggy break a stalk off and just make a hole in the soil and stick it in! I just did that with a few plants so now I will have several more in a short time. You can keep doing this and probably not have to invest in another geranium again. Have fun.
