Hi Discus - it has a winter rest (I restrict watering from the end of Oct to mid feb) and this is when I put it somewhere where the temp will gradually lower as winter sets in. It's one of the cooler Coelogynes and I read somewhere that it's min temp is around 8 degrees C. I don't have a temperature guage, so I can't say for sure, but I'd say mine goes down to 10 degrees C in its main winter spot and then for 2-3weeks I move it to an even cooler spot so it probably goes down to about 6 degrees C (but, like I said, that's only for a short while).
That might be too cool and I could probably get flowers without going that low, but since it seems to work, I'll stick with it for the time being
