A Question for Haemanthus Experts

Could be many reasons, but perhaps the plant simply wants to go dormant in
Spring time?

Hi Eugene,
I have a very small Haemanthus Humilis Giant Form that\'s not doing very
well.
I bought about 5 months ago and it was very perky and looking good. The
seller recommended repotting it because the roots were so large it was
about to break it\'s plastic pot. I repotted to the next size up and it was
doing well for a while and now that we\'ve hit winter in Melbourne,
Australia, it\'s started to spot, split on the leaves and droop overall.
It\'s always been kept inside in an average temp room, bright light and
no drafts or direct sun. I water occasionally, not letting the soil
completely dry out. I\'ve never changed it\'s position or how I care for it.
