I'm looking to get a couple of pings but I really don't know what type to be searching for so I'm hoping someone can offer a few suggestions.
They'd be housed in an Ikea greenhouse cabinet with good T-5 lighting on a timer. I've been keeping tabs on the temps & humidity this past summer and it maxed out around 88 degrees (which drops to around 76 overnight), daytime humidity is around 50% and nighttime humidity is around 65%. Based on where I usually set my thermostat, I'd estimate winter the temps would be around 78 for a high and maybe 70 overnight.
I'd prefer to have pings that don't change into a tiny rosette form over winter but that's not a total dealbreaker. I can also move them outside during winter with my VFT if they need a dormancy period (I'm in Phoenix, AZ so it usually doesn't get super cold here). And I'm not looking for anything fancy/expensive... I want something that is beginner friendly til I figure out how to care for them lol. Thanks!
EDIT: oh and I want something that should live for a few years, not an annual
