Hi Loph, I just managed to get one of these from e-bay with some other lophs. When they arrived they were a bit squashed! Will they fill out again now they have been potted or will they remain squashed. I could let you have any pups from this plant once it starts to produce them, is there any way to...

Because I bought a cheapy greenhouse I have to manually open the window and door when it gets too warm. I use bubble wrap for shading but I also have an electric fan to help with air movement. What should I do when I go on holiday, leave the door and window open? :?
