Hungry for Color

February, March, April, sometimes even May.  These are hard months for me, avid gardener that I am.  I think plants and I were always meant to be friends.  And although there is nothing so satisfying as growing your own food there is something equally pleasing about growing something beautiful.

This time of year I turn to houseplants, and this year in particular I've been especially blessed.  I have, not one, but two plants blooming in my home during this bleak, cold, outdoor season.
