Monthly Tips
December
Stock
Be prepared for winter snow. Be sure you have a car shovel, a good home shovel and a roof rake if needed. If you have a 2 cycle snow blower check your stock of 2 cycle oil. And be sure you are using fresh gas in your snow blower. Get it running and test it out.
Obtain
Amaryllis, Hyacinth and Paper white bulbs grow well indoors at this time. Get them growing early and have beautiful blooms in December and January.
Pot
Now’s a good time to repot indoor plants that have grown too large for their current homes. Don’t overdo it. Move up 1 pot size.
Maintain
Your indoor plants need regular watering and misting to overcome the dry inside in winter. Moist soil, not wet, should be the goal.
