he leaves curl. The leaves are turning red, right on schedule and the plant looks great. I kept the plant outdoors in the summer and brought it indoors before the first frost.

You are lucky it turned red without any special tricks with the lighting. There is no way to make it curl. These are special hybrids that most people discard after the first season.
