Pachypodium seedlings. ( ros v gracious)

Post by Eric Williams »

Hi all, I have a number of the above seedlings about one and a half inches high. My green house goes downt to 5 C in winter, so I have brought them indoors ( with permission) LoL. Due to warmer conditions, would an occasional water spray help them out until Spring. Thanks

If they have leaves, they need water. Poured or sprayed, depending on surrounding conditions (warmth, sun, air flow)... I do spray mine even when they have no leaves but veeeery carefuly :)

Thanks for the advice AnTTun, all the leaves are dark shiny green due to the mild temps I think. Cheers

Thanks all for your help. As well as the Pachys. I am thinking of bringing into the house some cacti seedlings as well. These were germinated late in the season and are quite small. I can provide far better conditions here than in the g/h in Winter. Never done this before, so help is required. I do not require them to grow, so a light watering now and then should suffice ? Thanks and Merry Christmas to all. Cheers
