| In another lifetime I used to be very much into plants and kept a jungle in my house, especially if there were lots of windows to support it. It was good to have a ficus Benjamina or even a banana plant growing with ferns and arums inside in the temerate zone winters.
Even had a "Florida Room" here (glorified porch with jalousie windows on two sides) that was all greenery.
But now I have given it up. I can look out my widow and see greenery year round. Bouganvillia is blooming right now. | |

| I had a spider plant last fall, but it didn't get enough sunlight I guess (despite my having kept it in front of the window) and wound up turning brown and dying. | |

| My wife and I are like Agent Orange when it comes to house plants. We can kill anything. | |

| I do well with my garden, but for some reason house plants I don't do too well with. My sister has had some of her house plants for 15 to 20 years. That floors me when I can't keep one for a few months...lol | |

| Plants freak here. I have about 20, and that is just the ones I keep inside during the winter. In the summer, when I can garden outside, on the balcony, the number can reach 60.
However, I have an extremely sunny apartment, and most of my plants are hardy and low maintenance. | |
