A cool rest for this species (at least from what I've read) is around 60 degrees. That being said, it's tolerant of average winter night temperatures (in my experience) of anywhere between 50 and 55, which is the average night temperature range in my growing area. As long as it's kept on the dry side (and by that I mean that it gets watered once every couple of weeks instead of the every couple of day waterings it gets during the summer growing season), it will go into a dormant period from around November to March, with flowering occurring in the spring to early summer months when the new growths emerge. Again, however, this plant is being a little optimistic by assuming that we must have entered spring. It usually doesn't flower for me until April through late May.
