As I'm sure most of you are experiencing this heat, it's having its affects on the plants too. Some of my newly aquired plants' leaves are wilting - prematurely I'm pretty sure. If I just let them be and let nature take its course, will I see them sprout up next spring? Or should I intervene and do something - and if so, what? Perhaps dig up the roots, put them in a baggie with some damp peat and refrigerate them tricking them into thinking it's winter? The plants affected the most are Cyp. Acaule. I understand they are difficult plants, but am hoping they'll be able to tough it out.
