Right now I have two plants that seem to be doing ok but they do not look spectacular. My outside plants are doing ok. I need to do some weeding this week. Lantana, impatiens and vinca never let me down.Arlene Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17845514896764280013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369505808572306850.post-25062890693783779632017-05-25T18:24:34.604-05:002017-05-25T18:24:34.604-05:00I love plants of any kind.

The past couple of days were so humid, but then late in the evening it lifted and was very pleasant. This morning it was 65 and cool. I couldn't get over that. Usually it is very hot by the time I go to walk the dog.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10185422453541735778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369505808572306850.post-56084201276201921262017-05-25T15:31:31.874-05:002017-05-25T15:31:31.874-05:00We get plenty of sunshine and humidity here but I&...We get plenty of sunshine and humidity here but I've not tried to grow houseplants.

In the rooms that are on that side, I can get lots of faithful plants to grow well. It is all about the right conditions and the right plant.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10185422453541735778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369505808572306850.post-58842926602555879862017-05-25T10:58:15.782-05:002017-05-25T10:58:15.782-05:00I am typically a complete fail at houseplants.
