With or Without Plants


Susan McCoy, trend spotter and outdoor living expert shared a profound statement in a recent article about 2012 garden trends. "Plants are no longer a luxury, but a necessity for our lives. Plants can live without us, but we can't live without plants."

So if you think someone is missing out on this whole plant experience, ‘tis the season to get them jazzed. For a holiday gift, try an orchid rather than a poinsettia. Potted bulbs are great options, too. Check the Annie archives. Here’s a sampler on how to plant certain bulbs for indoors. http://blog.bilowzassociates.com/2009/11/last-minute-fall-shopping-list.html Or take a field trip to one of our favorite greenhouses. http://blog.bilowzassociates.com/2010/10/postcard-from-tropics.html

Got plants? ‘Tis the season for this perfect gift you can’t live without!
