Hello all,
I don't know if this is a problem or not but here's my situation. I'm in zone 7b and I brought my dwarf orinoco inside for the winter. Even though I've cut back on watering, it has started to flower. I'm not sure that this is desirable during the winter months. I placed my plant in front of a south-facing large window, so it gets plenty of sun. When I noticed the flower bud growing out, I started watering it more and trimming off some of the spent leaves. Should I continue this process and hope to continue the flowering process or should I try to delay it until the weather gets warmer and I can take it outside?

Thanks
