Default Arum Lilly

I brought my two arum lillies in from the pond in the autumn, and put
them in the unheated conservatory.

Both are now in flower!

Does this mean they won't flower this summer, once I put them back out
on the edge of the pond?

It probably would have been best to leave them where they were as
implied in this site:

time will tell whether or not they flower in the summer, but it may well
be that you have induced their summer time.

Mine does the same in the same situation. After it has flowered, put it
outside and let it rot down.

When new growth appears in the autumn, bring it back inside again.

Beware of the pollen inside. It can mark.
