Wallaby, the greenhouse is about 65F this time of year, it should be more..at the other facility we had a warm house kept at 78F so they loved it. Our summers can be tropical like brazil or cool like Canada.Varies every year, last year was a hot summer all summer.this year may not be. they don't like to be cold and wet..cool temps they need to run on the dry side.They need humidity too, your climate may be too cloudy in weinter to keep them happy.Most of mine are full sun to half day shade depending on the varieties
