I do have a Victorian conservatory, compliments of DH here in AR, however, we spend winters in FL. If we didn't have the Florida house, I am sure I would at least have a Meyer lemon here. A wonderful neighbor waters my plants in the winter that reside inside.
Any day you wake up on the sunny side of the grass is a good day.
