Summer Delights!

Bring the Warmth and Color of something unusual!
Nature Indoors for Winter
Stave off the grey of winter with something colorful or curious from our greenhouses

Start an indoor garden under a glass cloche, or create a desert landscape with cactus and succulents.

Indoor gardening is a great way to introduce kids to growing things. Try something new this winter, and keep the gray at bay!

Flowering	Herbs	Visually Interesting & Easy to Grow
From orchids to long-lasting cyclamen and gloxinia, there's plenty of color to choose from. And for texture, try ferns (we have many varieties), and easy-to-grow philodendrons in the classic green or the new bright chartruese variety.	Winter's a great time to experiement with new soups and stews. Grow your own rosemary, chives, parsley, and bay leaves in a kitchen garden.	For ease of care you can't beat the visually interesting cactus and succulents. Going away for a month? No problem for most of these prickly plants that generally have lower water needs than other indoor plants.
