After gloxinia is finished flowering and leaves begin to yellow and die back….

Reduce watering. Allow plant to go into a dormant period. Store tuberous stem at 50˚ in a cool, dark place for 2-4 months in dry soil. When new growth begins to show (Jan-Feb), repot tuber in fresh soil in a 6″ pot. Place in bright filtered light and resume watering. Gloxinias prefer shade outdoors and bright light indoors.
