why do my paper whites just have lots of long green leaves and no flowers?

Question

I can’t remember if they’ve already bloomed or not. I live in zone 10 and have planted them in pots. Each bulb was placed about 2 inches deep. I remember my mother (who paid no attention to these bulbs) always had paper whites blooming in her yard. What’s up? Why can’t I get blooms?
