How to Beat the Winter Blahs

Apart from taking a vacation to warmer climes, what's a person to do to lift their spirits in the middle of winter? Buy and repot plants!

I had been meaning to repot several plants that I'd purchased some time ago, but never got around to. So with a warm, sunny day on my side I set out for a plant store in Madison that I knew carried wonderful, healthy plants.

I purchased a yellow Kalanchloe (to go with the new paint in my kitchen) and variegated ivy and potted them in a new pot . . .


I also purchased a Maidenhair fern and repotted it in it's new pot . . .



Then I set about repotting the plants I already had . . .




Next time I'm in the city I'm going to purchase some moss to put at the base of the plants which I think will look nicer.

I created quite a mess in the kitchen . . . gardening is dirty work! And I managed to beat away the winter blahs . . .
