    As it should be OK for temperature now, it should recover in about a month. From then on if you keep it warm it should never be out of fruit or flower

    FAB! Thanks again. Just bought a puffer thing to mist the leaves. A branch taken out of the centre to allow air circulation. No more feeding til those flowers appear. And watering twice a week.

    No sign of flowers yet, but the plant looking healthy. Ever impatient, is there anything to be said for applying a high potash feed...?

    This is the food I give @brian stoat

    yeah that’s what I was using; though not feeding at the moment as you said wait til it comes into flower again... just eager to see the flowers and wondered if some extra potash might hurry it along😊

    They just like to take their time Im afraid,  yours is young yet so patience 😇 You could feed once a month just to give it a boost, but yours is doing fine. When it gets going it will never stop.😁
