Indoor Gardening Begins (sigh)
I have started bringing in house plants from their summer vacation. Impatiens, the succulents, geraniums, cyperus alternafolia, coleus; there are so many plants and there is still the same amount of space I had last year. I may rig up more shelves and make a grow light area in the living room. Still there are limits to the space I can allow plants. I live with people who are not as interested in fauna as I am.
I confess. I took a coleus cutting from a fabulous commercial garden. My admiration goes out to the gardener. I only took the top, trimmed it to keep it from going to seed, but I did root the cutting.
