Thank you all very much,

Sadly i have already gotten them a little sunburned.It's hard to find just exactly how much light they like & how much is to much.I didn't realize they were related to the prayer plant until i researched them.I have found the tallest one opens easily with a small amount of light.The smaller one seems to need more light to open completely and it's beautiful when it does,it's leaves almost seem to form a low circle close to the pot absolutely beautiful.The taller one just open up to form what you see in my original post.If you look at the picture of the smaller one it's not open completely.These plants are quit difficult and i do know they like to stay moist.

Can't decide if i should put them inside to enjoy them and not worry about burning them up.I will have room that gets sun once my Hoya's all go out.

Have a lovely and dirty time in the garden this week.I hope everyone is having weather as nice as mine!!!!
A green thumb comes only as a result of the mistakes you make while learning to see things from the plants point of view!!
