hi, i need help in picking a couple of plants for my conservatory. i
would like the plants to be green all year round and be able to cope
with extreme weather. all help appreciated. please reply to
newsgroups.


Sanseveria (Mother-in-law's tongue), Spider plants, Crassula (Jade plant
or Money tree), cacti, aloes and pelargoniums all cope with summer heat
and and winter cold in a conservatory.

Depends how cold. Crassula don't like being both cold and wet, neither
do cacti, and pelargoniums don't like frost.
