Tiffany, I moved my semps to a table surrounded by trees, only dappled sunlight, and I sprinkle the trees but covered the semps with plastic, so they didn't get too wet, but it was 15 degrees cooler in that shady pot and they got very occasionaly dappled sun. Moved them back to part sun in mid October I think. Red Zinger doesn't like Texas, I lost a couple more, but overall more lived than I expected
