Default Arrg--ice cubes--arrg

Everything said so far is true, but...

as an exception to the rule, I remember someone postiing on one of the
groups about a decade or so ago that they lived in a locale too warm for
cyms and got them to bloom by - you guessed it - putting ice cubes in
the pot every day for a set period of time (I don't remember the number
of weeks mentioned)!
