I was complaining to hubby that it was a bit cold for the epis in our Winter. Ha. Compared to you , our Winter would seem like a heatwave to the plants. I don't have to bring anything in as it rarely gets below about 5 or 6 degrees centigrade here and the frost does not seem to want to come here on our hill. My epis are in 2 main lots. One lot is out under a large cypress tree and face north so get morning and early afternoon sun . The tree protects them from the cold Winter winds too. The other larger lot is now housed in a shade house with plastic to keep out the winter cold . Your plants look nice and green and I hope you get lots of flowers. I think the best thing to do with them is let them feel a bit neglected. They need to be ignored and just watered when they look really dry, but there are better experts with these than I am. Picture is of the epi house. Have a great day . |
