Maybe I didn't make myself clear in the previous post. Den amabile is a defunct, obsolete, synonym for Den furcatum. Den amabile and furcatum are different names for the the same plant, but Den furcatum is the recognized, correct one and amabile is the obsolete synonym. they are not different plants nor are they different forms of the same plant.

I would try to find out for sure if it is Den furcatum before you chill it down to 11C. If it is indeed Den furcatum then the cold temps and the drying out that you are saying you'll give it will probably kill it.
