That is a nice plant and flower. Actually these plants can flower several times per year depending on your conditions. The best strategy is to let them rest during the cool months, giving only enough water to keep them healthy. When the weather warms increase the watering and provide small doses of a low nitrogen fertilizer. Also important is to provide as much light as possible year round without scorching your plants. This can be done with shade cloth or some other type of filtering cover.

I hope this helps!
