Been a little while, but I thought I'd share a happy update here. It looks like the temperature drop of my basement though very subtle (~70 at the height of summer, to ~65 now), was enough to coax this plant into flowering for it's first time. All the roots appear to have gone to sleep for the most part and a spike is now pushing slowly from the center... Painfully slowly I might add, as I wasn't sure until a couple days ago that this was even actually a spike, ha.
The roots started to go to sleep about a month ago (maybe a little more), and I first noticed what is now a confirmed spike probably about 2-3 weeks ago... So, at least for now, this thing is moving really slow - at this rate I'm guessing flowers will be 2-3 months out unless it really picks up steam, so it looks like it's right on schedule for a late winter / early sping flowering.
Thanks for all those who contributed here, now it's just a waiting game to see this one through to flowers. If there's interest, I can (hopefully) update with some actual flower pics when they get around to showing up, ha.
