Soften your indoors with ferns
Ferns often remind us of the tropics of the rain forest where some forms grow to be more than 15 feet tall, literally towering over the visitors that walk beneath them. These are typically the variety of the Australian tree fern. In other cases they remind us of the cool, damp regions of the Pacific Northwest or the northern woodlands of Minnesota and Canada. These consist of a variety of selections such as the Maidenhair fern, the Ostrich fern and the Cinnamon fern to name a few. The richness of their green fronds seems to add a soft texture to the lower level of the forest floors.

Cacti are a good houseplant year round
There are many thoughts that go through people’s minds when they think of a cactus. Usually it focuses on the spines that cover the plant and how much they hurt when you touch them. Not that you are supposed to touch them or anything, but sometimes you just can’t resist and other times it is by accident. Either way, when the spines break the skin, you know what happened!

Palms bring the tropics indoors
A new year has begun and soon the holiday decorations will be taken down only to expose the neglected houseplants that were mistakenly concealed. It may not happen in your household, but in mine, there is always so much going on during the holiday season, that my houseplants are the items that suffer the most. It’s not because I don’t like them, it has more to do with the time that passes without me realizing. At times it seems I have just watered them within the past week, when the true reality is that it probably has been more like a month. Houseplants don’t really care for that kind of treatment.

Snow holds incredible benefits for spring season
How quickly this past year seems to have flown by, and already next week we will be welcoming in a new year.
As much as the gardener in me wants to make plans for spring clean-up and planting, we still have a good three months of winter to endure.

Grafted veggies are next season’s celebrity seeds
In many of the seed catalogs arriving soon in mailboxes, the headliners will be grafted vegetables, in which one or more different varieties grow from a single rootstock. Tomatoes seem to be the grafted transplants most frequently offered, providing greater disease tolerance, bigger harvests, increased vigor and better taste.

Statues watch over your garden during winter
Often during the winter months, I view the garden from the inside looking out through a window. The garden can be quite appealing covered in a light blanket of snow. There is usually not a great deal of activity, but the wildlife still seems to enjoy it as much during the winter as it does in the summer season. When it is cold and windy, I much prefer to stay indoors and dream of warmer and greener months.

Holly will accent the season with beauty
The Christmas season is filled with all sorts of music from the season. Most of the music from now until the holiday is predominantly Christmas in nature, but I sure love listening to it.

Poinsettias reflect meaning of the season
Nothing brings in the Christmas season quite as well as Christmas trees and poinsettias. They are the true things that dominate the colors of red and green that tend to make up the traditional holiday décor. In the past five to 10 years, these traditional colors have had some competition with some of the more modern color decorations to match people’s homes and preferences. This is also true with the poinsettia.
