The ferns will be the first into the new GH (early) to let them adjust to winter temps. Hopefully I will have less leaf drop with a slow transition to the indoors. I keep telling them coming in from the cold is for their own good but they always pout. Always. If only they would survive the winter I could have some giant specimens! As it is, like anything outdoors, they succumb to the elements. Thought I would lose my Fishtale fern after the drought. They suffered no matter who much water I gave them. But they are coming back ever so slowly. I have had them for 3 years. They are half the size from when I bought them.
Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love Truly, Laugh
uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you Smile.
