Acidanthera murielae (peacock orchid or glads) take 2

Seems my question got wiped out after posting--so trying again!

I bought 2 bags of these bulbs last week for a song. The bulbs (corms?) were sprouting. It seems that they normally would be stored over winter dormant and dry, like I do my callas; but since they were sprouting now I worried about how to handle them. Does anyone have any ideas?

I did pot them up in damp soil. So I could either keep them in a window and continue watering--but what will they do? I don't really want them to grow/bloom over winter--or give them no more water, put them in the basement with the callas, and hope that they will go back to sleep.

What do you think?
