Hi,

What does C. moorei like?  I've read it likes half day sun, and a summer 
dormancy.  Does it require a summer dormancy, or will it be OK if it gets 
year-round rain?  I've got it in a 10-gallon pot in sandy humus-rich soil.  

How about cold, how much winter cold can it take.  I don't mind if it loses 
leaves but I wouldn't want to interfere with bud formation.  Last winter it 
lost foliage when temps got a bit below 30 F.  


Cordially,

Joe
Conroe, TX:  still more rain, about 10 inches so far in June
