As the Jade is very slow growing the cuttings may not flower for several years.
They also need a sunny position.

It is more than likely root bound is why it blooms..do you feed it?...you must or it would need to be in a bigger pot to survive so well..When you give away a piece..it is not root bound and therefore does not bloom for them..I have never in my life seen one bloom like this...it is beautiful...

Yours is one of the best I have seen. Mine only flower when really hard done by. Just surviving with little water and pot bound. You could pass on a cutting when you see a bud developing on it.
