Hesperantha baurii question

My Hesperantha baurii is resolutely summer-growing, winter-dormant.  I rack
it in the greenhouse in winter, where it typically gets down to the
mid-twenties F.
But, if I received one with a new shoot, I'd pot it and grow it with
protection from frost, hoping that the seasonality would resolve in time.

PS My BX 406 Narcissus cantabricus 'Peppermint' is blooming.  Thanks, PBS,
for making that available.
