I love Erma Bombeck! I l think I've used that quote above before. It is just perfect though and suits our topic.
When I started here at HCG, I really didn't have a good track record with plants... indoors or out. But by osmosis and a little education, I began to really enjoy them. Much to my family's dismay, I now have a healthy amount of indoor greenery. All the plants go to Summer Camp, otherwise known as "The Deck," then come back home (inside) in September or October.
I have followed the advice given to me over the years from my fellow co-workers and I've had great success keeping my lovelies alive for more than 20 years.
I find myself these days, looking at plants in restaurants, shops, and offices everywhere I go and think about how I could make their lives better. I choose to abstain from passing on my advice...nobody wants "that lady" unless they ask for it.

You can have happy plants as well if you follow a few simple guidelines. With the onslaught of bugs and disease, we had this past summer, it is important to follow some simple rules for bringing them in.
C.L. has given us those tips in the Blog Post this week. This is really helpful and even better, you won't have any of us knocking on your door telling you what to do.
