Is anyone growing Bilimbi AKA "kamias" in Southern California?...If so do you put it in the greenhouse during the winter months..

I killed 2 already. In my experience they are very cold sensitive. Unless you grow them indoor or in the green house, they won't survive even a mild winter here.

I have four kamias seedlings growing right now but they are in the greenhouse until it gets much warmer outside (day and night temps). Having four gives me opportunities to experiment and I won't feel as bad if I lose one lol. I'll keep you updated on their growth throughout 2021. Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!
