"Ultra Tropicals"

It was. I gave it away when I moved here as I no longer have a conservatory.

 

Inspirational post, Gregory. Well done for all your hard work and determination!

 

I've always loved the shape of them

I have had good results with Neem Oil mixed with some Horticultural Soap (as a wetting agent). Pain to apply though as it is contact-only, so have to get on top and bottom of all leaves, and re-apply every couple of days (as it is not systemic). Some leaves don't like it either - I hosed everything down a few hours after application to minimise that problem.

Not plumbed them in as yet, but I bought a couple of Coolnet fogger nozzles (£4-ish each) with a view to using them for damping down.

The heaters are Biogreen Indiana (I think these have now been discontinued - which is a shame as they are fantastic) and yes they do also blow cold air.
