Joule, this plant is amazing . Can you tell more about your growing situation in winter?

Healthy plant, bewitching flowers. Good looking sphagnum.
I was thinking about growing Masdies in a special room in my basement under artificial lights, but so far it is only an idea.

Tom, my winter care is very simple, i just water them when the pots are light, by lifting pots i can feel it. My plants are not growing in winter time.

The temperature varies between 7-12 C.
By using LED lamps you can be sure that the temperature not rise too high. I use lamps 8-10 hours daily.

April i carry all my masdies to my greenhouse and take them back september- october depends on the weather.
