Winter status report!
I know California has received much rainfall the past few weeks as well as, and I know I will get flack from those in areas with actual seasons, blistering cold. I wanted to know how everyone's fairing this winter!
Most of mine are not protected with a roof, and get their pots flushed from rain, being in California this rain is usually cold. No rot issues, just damage from the winds blowing over pots or blowing baskets into everything in range.
My most tender outdoor orchids, or ones I fear are most sensitive, have been unaffected by temps down to 31 so far with no protection. Those being Vanda coerulea, Laelia purpurata, Holcoglossum amesianum and Laelia lobata.
I'm interested to hear about others cold season status!
