Indoor Gardening

This year I saved a few potted plants in my basement under grow lights, and they are doing well.
I continue to grow micro greens: sunflowers, peas, radishes, spinach and mixed lettuce varieties.  It has been fun and easy to go downstairs and clip fresh greens daily to enjoy with meals. The geraniums and fuchsia did very well. Also lemongrass was great to have handy for Thai cooking and the turmeric bulbs kept well, too. The Lantana had a set back with aphids and would have liked it a bit warmer, but it’s starting to come around.  

Signs of Spring

Signs of springs are everywhere. Violets are popping up throughout my yard. I can’t wait for the Daphne to fully open and fill the air with its intoxicating aroma. I loved snow and I know how badly we need it, but who doesn’t enjoy a bit of sunshine and flowers? Goly Ostovar, AGC Member
