I have lost too many to count but the most lost was when we moved from southern California to Oklahoma in 2009, that winter we had an ice storm and a blizzard, lost power for four days and the temperature in our house dropped to 20*f. I lost about 30 plants when it was all done. I even lost my favorite neofinitia,(a black pearl),
