Five-leaf Akebia not blooming

Hi there, I have a five-leaf akebia that I planted last spring. It didn't do too well last summer, grew at a very slow rate and I really expected it to die to be honest with you. It's finally starting to pick up a little bit this spring, but it hasn't bloomed at all the whole time I've had it. From what I've read online, it should be blooming by now if it's going to. It's planted in a partial (mostly really) shady spot. It's on a tripod support structure that it came from Pike's on and I'm training the vines that are starting to extend to climb up a porch trellis. It's watered as often as the climbing hydrangea that is flourishing. Any advice on how to take better care of it?
