Cat in a Tree--Budding Male
Default

I live in the middle of the middle of Florida.
Luckily this year the coldest we got was +38*(f) for 2 nights in a row.
The day-time temps got over 50*(f).

All I had to do was cover the individual orchids with some hand towels I purchased (in bulk) from Lowes.

There were a few other nights when I had to cover them, but only for one night at a time.


Now all my other others, pots and baskets, were moved into the shed where I used a portable heater to keep the temperature above 45*(f) in there.

Look, the guy across the street is hanging hankies out to dry at night again!
