Default Re: Rion Prestige Greenhouse 8'x16'

Oh yes, I've been ussing a Lasko ceramic heater with an automated feature to keep the greenhouse at 60 F. I've left the shade cloth on til it really gets chilly outside. The greenhouse stays 60 F at night and 80-95 F during the day.

As for Siam Ruby, MSU (Mississippi State University) extension office has been over wintering Siam Ruby outdoors for several years. The extension office is only 30 minutes from my house (zone 8). The extension office has a nice collection of Musa they are testing for our area. LOL, I was TOTALLY tempted to dig up a few banana's, but I think they would have noticed the 14 foot pseudostem poking out of my backpack.
