I’ve got a rather large Schlumbergera and my grandkids are coming over for a couple weeks – I can’t keep it in the house with them around. It’s 15 years old and nearly four feet across.
My question is, can I move it to the garage where it’s still a bit cold these days? Lows at night are around 40°-50° F. Any precautions I should take?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

I would simply make sure there’s a little square of light in the garage, and then for the cold, perhaps just wrap it in a bit of translucent cloth or something? Maybe also wrap the pot with bubble wrap?
Perhaps you can wait for a few other people to comment, too.
