Hm. This year I planted purple lablabs, my first time for them, and it took FOREVER for them to flower. I only finally got
enough pods to harvest and eat this weekend, and the vine has been there for a few months at the least. We have cycled through heat and cool and wet and dry and are now just heading into fall.
I did some searching
online and it sounds like they don't really put out the flowers until the days start getting shorter. My family in a much hotter area of Brazil grows them and I assumed the lablabs would love the heat but that hasn't been the case for me (also, these seeds I got from abroad, so who knows). So maybe just hang on and watch them. If I understand right you've had a heck of a hot summer there, maybe they just need cooler weather.
And a pic of my huge harvest--- it fed two of us!
