Transplant into a larger pot. Spray for insects.Bring indoors in to a bright location. Keep lightly watered.You will get leaf dropage but this is normal

I brought mine in last year and placed in a eastern window and watered and it grew long sprouts all winter that I cut off when I took out side last may...It has flowered wonderfully all summer....This year it is going to my basement as my girlfriend puts hers in her garage ,,,prunes it back to about 2 feet tall...and gives it a little water all winter,,so it hibernates but does not die....Good luck..and yes leaf drop age is very normal...I am in Ontario Canada...

Yes that is why mine is heading to the basement this year....Space...Cold and Dark with about a cup of water a month... It will be outside my laundry room so that should be easy to remember.....good luck ..I'm sure it will be fine...
