Freshen up the air in your favorite room by adding indoor plants. Did you know that plants absorb harmful carbon dioxide and release fresh oxygen into the air? In addition to being beautiful, indoor plants increase humidity, improve your mood and can help to reduce stress levels. During the previous holiday season, I was given our beautiful featured flower of the month Amaryllis. Amaryllis is the perfect indoor winter flower. The bulb is native to the western Cape region of South Africa. It was one of the easiest and fastest bulbs I’ve ever grown. My bulb kit included everything required to produce this stunning flower. I placed the bulb in a small pot with the bulb tip facing up. I covered the bulb with dirt leaving the tip uncovered. I positioned the pot in a well lit area while watering it occasionally. The entire process was amazing to witness and I can’t wait to plant my next one. Enjoy!
