nice to hear your rhombicaulis is doing well. i have been searching for more info on rhombicaulis in lowland conditions too, as i bought 2 of them and a spectabilis too. this time i put them in my office, with cool temps of maybe 16-20 degrees. so far, they look ok and are putting new leaves. i have since put the other not-doing-so-well highland plants there, too early to know which way they will go.

as for cephalotus in lowland conditions, i got 2 pots that are thriving, 2 that died and another 2 which are half alive,half dead! the 2 that died were in terranium, must be a fungus attack.

some other highlanders that are ok for now (in lowland conditions), chaniana, glandulifera, tobaica, sanguinea, gymnanphora, fusca, stenophylla, maxima, khasiana, ramispina, sibuyanensis, diatas (surprisingly). in fact, the best 2 are sibuyanensis and gymnanphora, as long as there is some wind, plenty of humidity and water, with good drainage. chaniana is my curse though, they almost always gradually decline..... some at risk of decline: gracillima, spectabilis and rajah.

any experience with spectabilis in lowland?
