Mine live in a passive solar greenhouse that goes down into the low 40's most of the winter, but heats up on any sunny day into the 70's or 80's. They live on the brick floor, so there is some heat retention emitting from that at night. In the summer I take them outside and I make sure they don't get leaf burn by giving them too much sun. I do water them in the winter, but not a lot. until they start to spike when we give them more water. My original one which was small when we bought it, took at least 4 years to bloom. I bought a couple of little yellow ones two winters ago and they will be a while yet in producing a bloom, can't wait, but I will have to. Best with yours, but please know I only know what seems to work for me, which has probably been just dumb luck, as I got this long before I found DG. The pictures are from the first week in March this year. Patti
