My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.
I have three allamanda cathartica that I want to keep over the winter but I lack window space since all my plants have grown. Can I put them into full dormancy and keep them in a dark basement? One of them has only now started to flower! Any advice?
Because they are an evergreen vine, they will not appreciate darkness. And never go fully dormant, either.
The best plan is to place them where they receive bright light through winter. Doesn't necessarily have to a be a window sill.....just someplace with very bright but indirect light.
Thank you. This is what I thought since it has worked for the last few years! I think I'll be giving a couple away at our next hort.society meeting in order to give me more room. Our house really does not lend itself to having as many houseplants as I do.
