i had a simillar problem, but i had heaps of flowers yet they all dropped off after a week or so. i am going to try a fertilizer with a high level of phosphorus.

my question: how old do plants get? how often to replace?

Instead of a Chemical based fertilzer try an Organic Fertilizer like Cow Manure, Horse Manure. Do not use Chicken Manure. It is too hot when moist and will burn your plants. Water well and give it a lot of Compost.
