LOL - don't look at me, I haven't either - but I moved them across the country last spring, so I really didn't expect it to.

I have to look at Tee's links above for confirmation, but I think Schlumbergeras in general are triggered to bloom by a decrease in length of days. I also suspect that they will react adversely, therefore, to artificial light, by not blooming because they aren't feeling a decrease.

Can anyone confirm that? I'm in a bit of time crunch at the moment.
In the end, only kindness matters.

Science is not the answer, it is the question.
