First Monday in February 2009

Still haven't changed all my calendars....I have calendars in nearly every room in my house....crazy, eh?
Yesterday, the weather was warmer and very sunny...snow fell through the night but not as much as predicted by the "trusty" weather man. I waterd most of the plants in the greenhouse and repotted the two umbrella trees that really needed new dirt and tlc. They are supposed to be miniature plants but they are really tall but doing quite well. Leaves were one sided so the pots are on the top shelf of my plant stand facing backwards...hope the sun will convince them to be more even.
I have some aphids appearing on coleus, so one plant got a haircut and I threw cuttings from it in the composter...have some cuttings in my kitchen, rooting, and they have some mealybug, soooo, don't know how much longer I will keep these plants...annoying bugs.
It was nice to spend time in the greenhouse....I feel like I am in a tropic place when the sun shines and I am enjoying my plants.
