Carl Rosner is in coastal South New Jersey.
I very much doubt that Serissa will survive outdoors in the Albany, NY area.
Has anyone tried it? For Gary, I would recommend potting the Serissas in large
plastic bulb pans, and grow them for several years in an enclosed fluorescent
light garden with controlled humidity. Serissas like cool temperatures and
humidity over 60%. Of course they go outdoors for the summer.
