Surprise! Surprise! I heard the low rolling of thunder at dinner time with no sign of rain. Then at half way of my evening walking, it began to drip... and I was warned at my plants including my jasmine still in my uncovered patio! So I turned my way home and drip became bigger drops just in time for me to move all my plants in: one Boston Fern, 5 giant Aloes + 3 medium cacti, and my 16" pot Confed. Gee, I guess my winter worry is over for now. I hope all these plants will continue to receive enough sunlight from now on. (I really don't plan/expect to move them out/in until maybe after spring rain except my BF...) Actually I place my jasmine just inside the same sliding door/window that it was outside in patio before (now it's a roommate of my already indoor snake plants, jade plant, BF, and a baby spider plant (together with two parent spiders -- a precious gift from a garden angel in this forum). The blinded window faces south, but morning sunlight from east can get in also (I may have to roll in the whole blind if necessary). The giant aloes are placed behind another sliding door/window (also blinded) facing east and a bit away from a window facing south (may help). I also got a bunch of bamboo sticks from HD ($2) and made a simple trellis for my jasmine. At once the vines spiral up on it after sticking in the pot! Big Grin Big Grin (still hope no more yellow leaves)

Oh, what a day!
If a plant looks good, smells good, don't eat it, grow it!
