名媛直播

Hey everybody.

I have a few 名媛直播 trees that I started growing this past Spring. This is the first Winter I’ve had them and I’d like to make sure I’m doing everything right to ensure my trees survive. I wanted to get some suggestions and feedback...

The room I’ve been keeping them in is a sort of “outdoor” room...window panels on all walls and the ceiling. I live in Pennsylvania in a suburb of Philadelphia. The winters can potentially get very cold, sometimes below freezing. I’m assuming that keeping them in this room all winter is a bad idea.

Today, I noticed that my trees are looking kind of droopy for the first time ever. I would think that it could be because I’ve left them in that outdoor room for a few days since the temperature has gotten pretty low. On top of that, I’ve noticed that the soil is rock hard in a few of the planters...maybe the water inside the soil froze?

I just moved all of them inside my house, which is a normal, comfortable temperature. This is just temporary to hopefully help the soil return to normal. If pictures would help a lot, I can take some and attach them here later.

What’s the best Winter strategy here?

Which species?

I have a few Delonix Regia, Jacaranda Mimosifolia, and Pinus Aristata.

My main purpose is to find out what I need to do during the upcoming winter.

But also, for the first time since I planted them earlier this Summer, my plants are looking bad. Branches are sagging, leaves are falling off, and their nice green color has faded. They have experienced some pretty low temperatures over the last week or two. I also noticed that the soil in their planters had become rock hard, so I’m guessing that the water inside the dirt froze after I watered them.

Since noticing that yesterday, I have moved them inside my house. I no longer have any rock hard soil. I’m attaching pictures.

What should I do here?

wait. Make sure you do not keep the soil too wet.
If tropical plants freeze, that normally is end of story. Let's hope the leaves just got frostbite and the trunk & roots were spared.

Flamboyant and Jacarandá are tropical, natives of Brazil.
They really don't like freezing temperatures, and most die if below 10C for an extended period of time.
On the other hand, it's difficult to keep them thriving indoors, as they like sun, warm wind and plenty of water.
I hope yours recover.
