Locations
Verandas, roofed terraces, or bay windows with good ventilation during the daytime. All foliages are taken into the rooms before sunset. They are placed where the wind from air conditioner heater is avoided and the temperature does not decrease if at all possible. Species which need better ventilations and/or cooler climate are hanged directly from the ceiling or in hanging baskets made of coarse rattan or bamboo. Other species are set on shelves with good ventilaton. Bay windows are opened as long as we can.
Light
Foliages are placed in the sun to partial shade or dappled sun under trees.
Water spraying
Water is sprayed everyday in the morning until they get soaking wet.
During stormy weather
All foliages are taken into the rooms in such cases: rains, storms, strong wind.
