Can house plants be transplanted outside?
I have some really beautiful houseplants that I have acquired through friends and relatives over the past few years. I have taken excellent care of them but now my house resembles a jungle. I live in Florida and winters here are very mild. My question is, can I transplant these houseplant into my outside flower bed? I don’t want to kill them but I really need to cut back on the plants I have inside. I enjoy them tremendously and don’t mind taking care of them, but it would be nice to have them outside for others to enjoy as well. My other concern is that the harsh Florida climate might burn them or harm them in some way. The flower bed I plan on putting them in has a good amount of shade but it does get a few hours of morning sun. Will planting these plants outside be too much of a shock to them and possibly kill them?
