6. It’s too cold

Like you and people in general, many houseplants are okay with a wide range of temperatures. But extremely low temperatures and frost are definitely not your cup of tea and it’s not theirs either. Is there someone who wants to lose tiny parts of their toes and fingers from frostbite? I don’t think so.
