The plants under the lights are doing quite nicely, even though I'm still battling aphids and mealy bugs.
I'm not overly fond of begonias, but the four or five plants I inherited are starting to bloom now, which makes them worth keeping around I think. What else is going on?
The grasses are going crazy:

Basil:
Rosemary:
More begonia:
Even the much-neglected Sansevieria in the tiny pot is going to bloom again:
A couple of winters ago it really perfumed the basement!
Even those that don't bloom are contributing something pretty:
The plants on this table keep me gardening all winter, which helps quell the urge to start seeds way too early -- although it won't be long before it's time for that too.
(They also help take my mind off the fried bamboo for a few minutes.)
What do you have growing this winter?

I love the closeups. I think I need to buy a real macro lens...
ReplyDeleteI have more plants inside the house this winter than ever before. I finally bought a seedling heat mat and am trying to give small succulents a good head start.
You gotta love anything that gets you through winter!
