Of course, that sun also dried them out a great deal too. I was hoping to start again next year. They're both still alive outdoors (today it was 85!) but looking a little rough.

I figured that now that I have the topiary cage structured, I would start fresh next year.

Mine arrived in great condition all the way to Minnesota!! The only problem is they came with Fungus Gnats. Those darn things killed my Bat Ivy but I'm still trying to save the Cat Ivy. I hope you've had better luck with your Spider and Bat.

Thanks to your blog, now I know where to find the Pumpkin!! WooHoo!! One problem my topiaries came with is fungus gnats. They have killed the Ivy on my bat and I am trying to save the Ivy on the cat. I hope you have had better luck with your plants!

I was tempted, but I couldn't figure out how I would move them to Texas in December. I'll have to make my own chickenwire frames and plant air-plants and succulents in them since that's what will grow in College Station.

It's supposed to be in temperatures of 55-70 which eliminates outdoors; however, it's English Ivy so it really should grow fine outside. <br /><br />For now I just moved the spider to our coffee table downstairs.
