I've been having some indoor success with the warmth tolerant ones by double potting them. In the summer my grow room can get to around 90, so for several years I really struggled with masdies. I now have the plants potted in a 4" clay pots. I then put the 4" clay pot into a 6" clay pot and stuff the gap between the two pots with spagh. Twice a week a soak the spagh in between and in the mornings I usually mist the outside of the 6" clay pot. I 'think' this helps to keep the roots cool enough that I can sucessfully grow a few of 'em. Currently I grow an Angel Tang (seems to be a constant bloomer, at least 9 out of 12 months in bloom), a Snow Leaopard (constantly blooming for over 1 year) and one I can't remeber the name of while I'm here at work. I'm looking to add a princeps this coming weekend, I had one a few years back but really struggled keeping it going and it finally lost the battle. Bob

Lovely, intense colour. Nice green "socks".

Thanks! I am very grateful and lucky to live in the environment I do. I basically only have to water them, since it's pretty cool and gets very foggy almost every night. I find that a lot of masd care more about humidity than heat and if it's hot they just need more water. But I'm not sure. There are some warm tolerant varieties too such as ayabanaca or something. Everyone has a different environment. I wish I could grow warm growing dens here! But anyways, they are really just such spectacular plants.

Thanks! I went to check and if fact they do have it....along with thousands of others.... I'm gonna need some strong self control before I get anything from there lol
