Plants make January Better

January is a great time to brighten things up. Especially this cold January in the third year of the pandemic. We will be spending a lot of time at home.

I have 13 or 14 varieties of plants growing indoors during the Winter. Most of them will spend the warmer months outside on the front porch. I have a couple of jade plants in my dining room that look like small trees. I have an ivy plant that I have growing up and around a window frame.

There are begonias and violets blooming in the kitchen. There is also some rosemary and some lavender. I have a couple of Christmas cacti and some succulents. One of my favorite plants is the large umbrella plant in the living room.

I am not convinced that a house is a home without plants.
