But the fact that you have cats and houseplants gives me hope, Jean--I just finished picking up the begonia that my Toby knocked over again:) I'd love to see a copy of this book; maybe with some help, I could get houseplants to grow here once again. Love your succulent collection!Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-80292770744630047772012-11-30T01:57:08.891-06:002012-11-30T01:57:08.891-06:00Good morning Jean,

I do hate them, but as you say, there is no substitute for wooden surfaces. You have made me want to do some 'clustering' in the house this winter, consider my hat thrown into the ring (if the UK isn't too far!)Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08255717931620460104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-3664157784640079652012-11-29T09:52:33.918-06:002012-11-29T09:52:33.918-06:00My living room looks like a greenhouse.

It's a lot of work, but it gives me something to do in the winter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-46056821027857577242012-11-29T08:52:26.041-06:002012-11-29T08:52:26.041-06:00Well, just toss my hat in the ring with the rest o...Well, just toss my hat in the ring with the rest of them! I’m just getting interested in house plants again this fall and this book would probably have a lot of information I could use. :0) About the saucers, that’s one of my biggest complaints about house plants. Leaking on the floor and table tops. Lots of the saucers aren’t sealed so the moisture eventually wicks thru and they still make a mess. I’m not one to paint a sealant on them and they’re almost as expensive as the pots themselves. What I’ve started doing is buying clear glass plates from Wal-Mart and the Dollar Tree. They’re inexpensive and they match everything. :0) You know, someone needs to make clear glass flower pots! Wouldn’t it be neat to see the moisture of the soil and the roots growing in it!Randyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03840964031964028578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-85316113310578584172012-11-27T19:53:51.786-06:002012-11-27T19:53:51.786-06:00I have a lot more houseplants today than I did yes...I have a lot more houseplants today than I did yesterday. A possible freeze tonight left us lugging all kinds of tenders inside. It would be interesting to read her book. I always need help keeping things at their best inside the house.Rock rose https://www.blogger.com/profile/00348711150803587369noreply@blogger.com
