Hi Rowan,

You may or may not be right. There is a difference between dormancy and dormancy. For instance, my common lilacs do go through dormancy here in Los Angeles but never flower. That's because they need a certain number of days below a certain temperature (around freezing point) in order to flower. It's the same with apples, they go though dormancy but also need a number of days of low temperature in order to fruit (luckily my apples seem to get by with the winter they get here).

So the quality of dormancy may be a factor. Florida is a pretty warm place as it is, never mind indoors.

Regards,
Attila
