Hello Everybody!

This time of year, it is hard to get out to garden, however our indoor plants need extra care. The furnace is running, so it's important to water frequently, but not heavily since plants are only drying out on the surface. Also, because of dry hot air, you should spray the underside of leaves for insects with an organic product.
A good way to maintain humidity for plants is to set saucers with water around your plants.

House plants help clean the air of impurities and dust (approximately five plants in a 20x20 room).

Don't forget the birds! This time of year we need to help our feathered friends with food and water. A neat project is to hang pine cones with peanut butter in the garden.

Lastly, don't forget to "clean" your garden tools, sharpen lawn mower blades, change the oil and replace the spark plug.

See you soon,
Dabney
