INDOOR HERBSGrowing herbs on the kitchen windowsill is like a dream come true...but can it be done successfully? Recently I had Master Gardener Louise Rennecker, the "Herb Lady" on my radio program, WBOI 89.1 FM who simply says, "No." In many ways I must agree with her on the subject of growing herbs indoors. It is near impossible to grow outdoor plants in the house, especially in the winter when you have everything going against you...low light levels, short daylight hours and the lack of fresh, outside ai ...

ORCHIDSOrchids make an easy and popular blooming houseplant as they take very little care and really thrive under normal household conditions. The only condition that needs to be increased is the humidity levels, as orchids not only need plenty of heat but also high humidity-this can be accomplished by simply placing saucers filled with a thin layer of pebbles and water (keeping the water below the pebbles) and creating an area of higher humidity. There are over 25,000 different kinds of wild orchids ... Read more...

When it's cold, build a fire in the fireplace, or the woodburning heater, or maybe just light a candle and look in the flames, look deep in the flames for the answers. I've always believed they are there, and this time of year is a time for questions. It is a time to weigh the events of the past year and toss them around and ask why.
