    I am an Anthurium and I would really hate it if you put me outside.

    It might like a holiday outside in the summer if you have the right conditions.I find houseplants can do very well outside,a bit of natural rain and breezes to blow off the dust and cobwebs!

    Ha ha I did that one year and every pest in the garden descended en masse onto my poor house plants. They must have looked liked tasty exotic treats.

    Our house plants spend most of the summer outside in a sheltered spot,  but stood on grit and with copper tape around them. They really benefit from their summer holiday, but just this week OH removed a striped snail from our landing windowsill - it must've hitched a ride on the Christmas cacti image
