Fascinating! That’s like an alien world to me. How is your Ipomoea aquatica doing this summer?

(If you plan to stay there for a while, I could recommend you a few plants to try…)

I probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference either. What’s the climate change situation there, in regard to temperature? Do you get extreme cold spells, or is it just warmer at all times of year?

With how many different Inga species there are, I can’t even tell them apart except for a very select few. If your plants are in fact Inga vera, and if the information online about that species is correct and it does grow only up to 1000m in its native range, then I doubt that your plants would survive freezing temperatures… but we’ll see, I suppose.

Yeah, that is questionable in your climate… Do you know which species you have? Some of them are native to higher elevations and could possibly survive the winter if you protect them from a hard freeze. or you could move to the tropics
