Post #4210224

This was given to me back in September. It came off a plant that was about 6 feet tall and several arms or growths or whatevers. The person who gave it to me told me to keep it cool and little or no water till spring. As usual, I'm worried. For a few weeks it just laid on one of my plant shelves then I decided to just stick it in LECA. Left it alone and dry there for another few weeks. Then I couldn't stand it any longer and watered it. Remember it's in LECA so it dries relatively fast. It's in my house which runs about 62-72 degrees. I think it's shriveling a LITTLE...nothing severe yet. I don't think it's safe to put it in my garage. It can get near or slightly below 32F in there during some of our colder days/nights. Unheated rooms are at only a few degrees cooler.

I'd hate to lose this baby. What, if anything, should I do?
