JANUARY 10 is Houseplant Appreciation Day!
By the 10th of January, the holidays are a distant, happy memory. We have put the decorations away. Now, our houses all look kinda plain, and drab inside. As you look around the house, something catches your eye. It's over there, in the corner of the room. It's still green, but it sure looks dry. And, its drooping a bit. Why, it's a houseplant! Funny, but with all of the holiday hubabuloo, you've all but forgotten your houseplants.
Well aren't your houseplants lucky that the tenth of January has arrived!? Today is THE day to get back to tending to, and loving your houseplants. It's also a day to appreciate just how special and important houseplants are to you. As gardener's we need to have our hands in some dirt. Caring for them, gives us that opportunity. After all, its a long way to spring, when we can get out into the garden again.
If nothing else, this day will serve as a reminder that you need to give your houseplants a little attention. We want to encourage you to grow and keep houseplants, especially in the winter months. And, we want to celebrate the beneficial aspects of houseplants in our lives.
