It's a few days post-holiday, and it's below freezing outside. The decorations are coming down, and it feels...bare. Now that the winter festivities are just about over we start getting that itch for warmer weather and long, sunny days. But a walk around the greenhouse is a perfect way to lift your spirits. Already, I'm seeing primroses, helleborus, and hyacinths. It's very encouraging!
One way I like to perk up my indoor surroundings once the last of the decorations are carefully packed away is by adopting some new plants. There's nothing like a new peace lily or basket of primroses to brighten up even the dreariest of winter days. And did you know that houseplants aren't just lovely to look at but they purify the air?
I also find myself buying more cut flowers this time of year. Sure they may not be growing outside just yet, but you can always find cut tulips, lilies, and roses at your local florist. Tulips are a reminder of sunnier days ahead. Roses and lilies are so fragrant. It's amazing what a bouquet of flowers can do.
