Thanks, @gigiplumeria. We are safely predicted to be in to the mid 60's at night, mid 70's in the day until the week of Thanksgiving. It sounds like glorious weather to me. I think my trees will be OK for some warmth and light watering this late in the season. I do see some leaf drop and no signs of inflo. But like I said, the Aztec Gold and the Bridal Bouquet Pudica keep giving and giving! My orange NOID would have been included in that list of fall blooms had the stem not cracked off. Of these clouds would move over and let the sun come out, they might be even more showy. Maybe after this storm...

The 2 cuttings I am having to worry over are the ones I originally planted in 1--% perlite. They were bare-rooted when transplanted and many of the roots broke off even though I was as gentle as I could be. The big leaves are droopy. I am keeping them in sunlight (when it is here) and dry.

@tarev I am not too worried about the hurricane rains. Yes the state is getting dumped on. And we need it to lift the burn bans and stop the wildfires. But our area is not getting it as bad as those to the west and north of us. Oh, we'll have rain alright. But I don't think they will be the torrential-type. But for safety of my Plumies, I will move the smaller ones into the greenhouse and the larger ones will be rolled under the breezeway. I think they will fit? I have some work to do between rain drops. Signing off.....
