My basjoos are wintering over awesomely. They have no idea they are not still in FL. I have started misting them with a spray bottle a couple of times a day. Any thoughts on this? Good? Bad? Ugly?

On an additional note, the emerging leaf on the faster plant is growing at the rate of 1/16" per hour. How does that rate for a potted basjoo wintering indoors?

The native environment of Basjoo has humidity in the 50%-70% range, not 90%-100%.

So a spray here and there won't be too much for them then. Thanks Richard.
