Beautiful greenhouse and plants! Just another month and many of us will be moving our plants back inside. Summers are just too short!
I collected cacti when I was a kid but when my oldest daughter was little, she somehow fell into the collection even though I had tried to make contact with them impossible. I ended up giving them all away. I thought about getting her a little cactus for her college dorm room this fall as a joke but I settled for ivy...just to be safe.

Yeap, that it is and I'm thrilled it's doing so well. This winter will tell because that is when us northerners kill them.

As I had said, they got left out but here they are. I have 2 sets: some (pic 1) are on a shelf while the hanging plants will go back into the greenhouse and hang from the rafters. I know it is somewhat difficult to see the hanging plants but there are about 25 or so....

Carol, for you in Florida it is a bit easier given your humidity. Up here in Michigan, I water or mist almost daily because they do dry quickly depending on the temperature, humidity and air circulation.
