How do you treat your houseplants that have been outdoors all summer?
What sort of houseplants?
Mostly succulents, some in 10" pots. Various zygocactus, marginata,
desert rose, Dracaena, oxalis, euphorbias, jade, various cactus.
I'd hose them off if they needed it, check the appropriate ones (jade, for
example) for mealy bugs and then bring them in. Check under the pots and
for spider eggs. IIRC, succulents are probably the ones that need the
least care to bring in but might be the hardest to make house comfortable
with the light changes and all.
