  • I diidn't realise you can get hard frost inside a greenhouse, Paul.  You can tell I haven't got one!

    Sometimes an unheated greenhouse can 'feel' colder than outdoors in winter ; the chill of the glass I think . However , the main positive is the protection from dessicating cold winds .

    Ken, how can you tell it's a boy?

  • Let's face it, Josusa, it couldn't possibly be a girl, could it? image

    If it being kept in the house over winter then it will need a little water. Even in the summer watering once a month is too little if it is in a sunny window. And no feeding required.

  • As I have already said, mine is in the house all year round, on a soutth facing windowsill of an unheated room, gets not a single drop of water from 1st October to 1 of March, is given  an occasional diluted tomato feed in the summer and flowers every single year.

    Perhaps I'm lucky, perhaps that's the right thing to do?
