dyzzypyxxy said:But don't worry too much about rain, either. As long as they're in a fast-draining medium or no medium at all like Donald's, they will do fine. Mine are out in the garden just randomly scattered on top of the soil, and through the summer rainy season, they get a daily deluge, and very high humidity but they never rot. Pretty much take care of themselves.

I think in cold weather it's more important to keep them dry.


I've had them for YEARS in that same pot and they were fine. Brought them inside during the winter and back out when the weather was warm enough. I guess the soil just solidified, or something, I sorted through and put whatever seemed like it wasn't too far gone into loose soil and some have already taken root and are doing well, some are just laying there in the soil not doing anything. As long as I can salvage a few, I'll be happy.

Thanks!
