2022 Gardening Resolutions
Over the last couple weeks, we have asked for your gardening/outdoor resolutions for 2022. We got a bunch of responses! Let’s take a look at some of them.
Caring for Poinsettias
Waaaaay back in 2009 we posted our first video to YouTube. It was about caring for poinsettia. Aside from having great information, it helped launch our online presence.
Deadheading
The process of deadheading flowers is very simple. As the blooms begin to fade, pinch or cut off the flower stem below the spent flower and just above the first set of full, healthy leaves. Repeat with all the dead or fading flowers on the plant.
Indoor Succulent Care Tips
Houseplants are seeing a resurgence in popularity right now, and succulents are a huge part of that trend. Succulents are any plant with thick, fleshy leaves and stems instead of a particular family or genus.
Air Plant Care
Air plants make great accent pieces for any room. Like all houseplants, they bring a bit of the outdoor inside. Air plants offer an easy way to reconnect with nature.
Decorating with Houseplants
My office is stuffed with houseplants here at Bob’s. Many of them have been used as inspiration for videos and blog posts, while others I have received as gifts. They make up a significant part of the general feel of the space. Using houseplants as part of your decor can be a rewarding experience, but there are a few things to consider.
