Pheli I have not had much success with Spathoglottis plicata so I do not agree that it is "hardy"
Maybe our winters are too cold. Sometimes goes down to 0C with occasional frost on the coldest winter nights but days stay around 20C (except yesterday went to 7C). I have only grown them in a pot both in full sun and in my greenhouse and they die just as quickly. Am I doing something wrong?
