Hi Sheryl, I think they bloom better at lower temps, but personally I've just treated these as houseplants. If you provide them indirect bright light, they'll love that! Also I water mine with 1/4 strength 15/15/15 liquid fertilizer. And every 3 or 4 months they get a bath to rinse out any salty/chemical residue. If you feel like trying something let me know and I can send you a leaf (after the holidays) Growing babies from the leaves is fun if you have the space! There are Youtube videos even! Sticking tongue out
Cheers
