I'm in a RV park next to the Pacific ocean in zone 8B and purchased a few plants from Home depot with clay pots for each plant. I'm planning on adding to the collection possibly building a few planting boxes.
I'm using standard potting soil and wondering if it's good enough type of soil for the cactus that require more drainage?
I also rescued a few ferns gowning under the side of cargo trailer where someone cut them using a weed wacker.
My location in the Northwest zone 8B averages approx. 65 to 70 inches of precipitation annually. Temperatures are usually from the 30's to 50's during the winter, 40's to 70's spring and fall and 60's to 80's in the summer. Humidity is currently 69 % and can become 80 and higher when raining. Doesn't really get all that dry here. All the plants were replanted in clay pots using common planting soil.
Since I'm in a RV I don't have any window sills and space near a window to grow plants indoors. I'm not certain what to do with some of the plants if temperatures get below 40 into the 30's?
Here's some of the information I have from the plants purchased from Home depot of which most are are cactus and succulents.
Sempervivum (Hens and Chicks)
Dracaena Marginata
Golden Barrel echinocactus grusonii
Cotyledon Long Fingers
