Default Re: Pups all over the place

Certainly sounds like you've got enough natural considerations to keep things more than interesting, although there has to be a trade off to live in paradise I guess!

For overwintering I simply am leaving all the plants to take their chance in pots by the sunniest windows I can find. I only water when the soil is bone dry, and then only a little bit, just to keep things alive. I check them about once a week, but water far less than that. I tried storing in my basement last year, the lasiocarpa came out 6 months later looking basically like it did the day it went in, and started growing almost immediately. The musas came out so badly that it took them most of the summer just to start growing again!
