Please advise how often this plant approx 2 feet tall
should be watered... It sits in an office of approx 75-85 degrees.

Thanks

Only when it needs it. And how do you tell? Go to horticulturist.com, scroll down the home page to the section 'How to do ..." and that will tell you about watering any plant. Derek

Since the plant is tropical, I water is quite often.

Bonnie, tropical or from the Arctic - water it when the plant, responding to the temperature, the light and the wind flow, among all the other subtle factors, has used enough water from the soil that the top inch or so is dry. Then SOAK the whole soil ball ... and wait to water again. It is so simple once you gete the rhythm of the plant's water use right. Derek
p.s. it works for all plants, from cactus to the plants from the deepest rain forest.

I live in Columbus Georgia. I have both plants and tree types. Can I plant them for year around growth? I have been told that some plants may not survive the Georgia winter outside and must be brought inside.
Thanks you.
