From comments on here, they're difficult to keep growing well long-term. I hope my conditions might be right. Always warm or hot & no rain from November to June (also the closest to a cool season we get).

It is cold, wet winters that cause problems, right? It doesn't get below around 60F here, so I should be okay, maybe.

How long have you had it? Whatever you are doing, it looks great.

A lot of members here have to bring their plants in the house for the winter. Too much water is the worse thing for them. I lost four full grown plants and two babies to rot. I have one left now with a pup and hope I can keep it alive.

I guess I've had it around 2 months or so. I have it in just expanded calcined clay balls (and if a bit of bark or a stone falls from another pot, I'll toss that on top).

You should not have any problems with growing this. I have seen pictures of hahnii growing in a stream and thriving. As long as it's hot and bright light seems almost anything goes. I have grown Golden Hahnii for many years and though all my problems were over. Well this winter I lost a lot of my special hahnii. Looking back I saw one major problem that could have led to this. A special mix of chemicals sprayed on and watered in during early winter or late fall. My bad. Some of my futuras were not affected (strangly).

Living where you do, I would plant it in the ground or raised bed in bright shade.

A balcony is my only option at the moment. I do like the idea of PIG though. Maybe if I can keep it going for a few years I'll be able to do that.

I was afraid I'd lose all my Hahnis this Winter, but they mostly made it out alive at least, (lost a couple of small "Silver Marginated" and my "Green Jade" lost a lot of leaves) but the rest were just a little frazzled, but no worse for the wear. The one hit hardest was my "Loop's Pride," but I think I can salvage it.

I had trouble with my Loops pride as well but this year it is doing well. Not so for my Gold hahnii or Striker. First time I had this kind of loss in a long time.

Those look great Stush! I can't wait to see if my Loop's Pride gets that beautiful!
