A side issue... when Den nobile (and hybrids) get too much nitrogen, especially when they are slowing down in the fall, they tend to produce keikis rather than flowers. What is your fertilizer regimen? (If it were my plant, by this time of year I wouldn't be fertilizing at all) There is debate (and I don't have the answer) as to whether it is cooling nights in the fall, or reduction of water, that triggers spring blooming. I tend to greatly reduce, but not eliminate water in the coldest months (but I reduce watering of everything when it is cold), and cool nights happen naturally for my plants because I'm growing them outside. For indoor growing, this is lilkely trickier to achieve so I defer to those whose growing conditions are closer to yours to jump in with what works for them. But for sure, these plants are likelier to bloom with modest fertilizer during the spring and summer, and none at all in fall and winter.
