Pretty sure they need consistent hot/balmy temperatures for proper growth/development/flowering. I have a friend in St. Louis that grows them and has excellent success blooming titanum (gets several blooms per year). She does this because she keeps them in a temp controlled greenhouse year round at high temps/humidity. Not sure what the success would be outside of this environment. I do know that she gave the Missouri Botanical Gardens a few and they haven't gotten a bloom yet.
Edit: update on konjac bloom...22 inches, not opening yet.
