Outdoor Blooms To Come Into Houses
Plants that bring joy in summer beds and porch boxes can be kept indoors over winter. Geraniums and coleus, along with other summer bedding plants, may be dug up and potted in five or six containers. Use broken crockery for drainage, lift carefully to save roots, water, and place pots in a cool shady spot for a week or two. Some larger plants may need half scale back to compensate for root loss.
