casey put the tree in half a day of sun put a tray under the plant and keep it full of water, water the plant daily it loves to be wet never let it dry out.

I keep mine indoors all year round. I live in the south and its brutal. I keep Valentino (that's his name) by the window and he's very happy and lush.

I do too. You need to bring it inside in the winter and boot it outside when it gets to 30 degrees and no lower in the spring. When you bring it in it goes dormant - needs no light. the leaves will drop(that's fine)...it can go in a basement, etc...just give it a little water each week.

These trees hibernate in the Winter. All the needles fall off and it looks dead, then comes back in the Spring. So I'm not sure you'd want it in an indoor garden. Also if the house is dry in the Winter from heat, you have to be careful it doesn't dry out. It does best if left outside for three seasons and brought into a garage or shed for the winter...that's assuming you get 4 seasons where you are.

I think it would depend on where it's planted and how much moisture it gets. I live in Blackwell,TX (u can google it & see what zone I live in). I managed to keep it for 2 years and then it died. I felt the sun just cooked it to death even tho I babied it. So maybe it doesn't do well with alot of hard, hot, direct sun.

Absolutely!! I love my Brussel's Chinese Bonsai. I keep my plant mostly indoors, and in the lanai, but bring it out occasionally in the rain.I am very pleased with my purchase. My Bonsai is still as beautiful as it was when I bought it last year. I intend to buy more.

So far, it's lasted outside past few weeks in jersey in the cold no problem. It's a small worthy investment. Can't hurt to try it out. Do research on the specific species of the tree for the most accurate info.

The instructions indicate that this can be either an indoor or outdoor tree. I live in an apartment in NYC and have kept the bonsai indoors since September, and it is thriving. My advice is to make sure it gets enough light, water it regularly as instructed, and make sure it isn't too close to a radiator/air conditioner unit (depending on the season).

I have had mine for about 8 months and planted in a 2'x2' planter box moved inside for winter in Wa state. Lots of new leaves in past few months so hope full a bud or two not far behind. Plant needs to aclimate to your conditions first. When I first got it all the leaves fell off in a month or so and then grew since it was shocked and adjusting. Plant has done great so far so I am in for long haul now. I would guess after a year or more it could bear fruit but looks nice indoor even with no fruit. Resemble s a indoor bamboo type plant.

It is a tree and should survive texas heat. They are shipped from Florida so similar weather. Sad to say my tree did not survive. I think it was something I did though because the tree was very healthy when I got it. I don't think it got enough water. Hope this helps

Your tree is an outdoor tree but can be put inside if it is below 50 outside. Your tree may dry out in the house! Be careful not to let this happen! I have mine inside so I keep my eye on them.

It needs at least 6 hours of full sun a day it is not an indoor tree unless it's a hot house mine is outside unless the temperature drops below 30 degrees.

Love my banana tree!!! I would recommend waiting to plant until later this spring- maybe late April when warmer temps are more consistent. This is a very fast growing plant so you'll have a beautiful plant in no time! I'm in MO and I cover mine with a heavy layer of mulch & they weather the winter beautifully!

I've had my plant about 9 months and it is about 2 feet tall and getting bushy. I live in a cold climate so it is in the south window and the temp at night is about 50 and in the day can get into the 75-80 range. My friend in Arizona has his potted on his patio and reports that his is a bit taller and bushier than mine.

It clearly says it on there not to leave it out. But I have no where to store it so I have left it out for 5 months, but I also live in California where we have no seasons. I am sure for the price you pay, you probably want it to last so keep it in the garage :)

I would assume you could grow it indoors but there would come a time that it would have to be transplanted to a large green house that would be temperature controlled as this tree will get up to 25 feet high.

I live in north Texas. I have tried to grow moss in open air here but it has always died, no matter how much I misted and watered. I could never find the right combination. I think it is too dry and hot here for most of the year. My moss collection lives indoors in a medium sized turtle bowl capped with a clear plate. I remove the plate occasionally to release the excess moisture, and I rotate the bowl a quarter turn once a week. The air temperature inside doesn't get above 85 degrees F. The moss is still alive and healthy, and growing. I think most mosses seems to like cool wet climates. That's all I can tell you.
