I have germinated several Catalpa tree seeds, and am also germinating Moscheutos Hibiscus and a Paulownia (I know) tree. We are in the country and have a very large lot in back, maybe an acre, where I want these trees. We have a sunroom on the south side. Am I right that these baby plants and my other house plants will be OK in this room unless it gets below 40F? Thanks, Jackie

They may get ugly & weird looking, but they should be fine, and they'll recover in the spring.
I do not have the answer to your question. However, your interest in the care of trees is awesome. I would like to take this time to share some links with you.

No one else on these news groups ever recommend the latter. Why? I do not know. Paulownia trees grow in South Eastern USA. It gets pretty cold here. So does Catalpa. However you might have a problem with Hibiscus with lower temps.. Hibiscus is common in middle Florida.
