For the last few weeks here in PA, the weather teases us with warm days followed by temperatures dipping back down to seasonal norms for the next few days and then things warm up again. The warm weather gives me Spring Fever - I just can't wait to get out and plant. But the returning cold makes me grumpy and I want to go back to hibernating under a warm quilt. It's been quite a temperature roller coaster of late, but hey, welcome to Pennsylvania.
Sadly, it's not quite time to start planting yet and I know that it is still a bit too early to remove the leaves in beds that beneficial insects are using for winter cover.

Read on to find out how to grow herbs (and other plants) indoors quickly and easily.
It's so dreary here in PA. I thought it might be a good time to share my insights from a few years ago when I decided toteach myself about orchids. So if you've got a case of the winter blahs maybe it's time for you to jump in andtry growing orchids yourself.
And if you already have orchids, maybe treat yourself to a new one.
