January 13, 2021

Pinterest Facebook Twitter Check out our basement remodel progress! In this basement bedroom, we soundproofed the ceiling and added new lighting, but we’re keeping the original built-in storage. See all of our 1960’s basement remodel vlogs and projects here, and be sure to subscribe to our channel to be the first to see more updates. Basement Bedroom Remodel I hadn’t shown you this room before this vlog because it was acting as a storage room for us. Not much to look at! But now we’ve reorganized and this basement bedroom is ready for a moment in the spotlight. The Ceiling Usually basement ceilings are a given, but we chose to leave the ceiling open in the main areas of this basement remodel. (See more about that decision here.) This bedroom, however, is located below the kitchen so we had kitchen plumbing we wanted to keep hidden in … Read More

It’s Not Easy Growing Cacti Indoors

Garden Tips

Janice

January 12, 2021

After ten years of gardening, I have tried growing quite an array of plants. From succulents to giant sunflowers, I am continuously drawn to unique and interesting plants. After having some success growing cacti from seed one season, I decided I would try my hand at overwintering them indoors. Ultimately, my prolonged struggle to help the plants thrive in their windowsill has led me to consider whether or not I would ever try growing cacti indoors again. My Struggle with Indoor Cactus Here in my Kentucky garden, cacti aren’t exactly a common sight. Of course, there are some varieties of cacti that are hardy to my growing zone. However, many types of cactus struggle due to our consistently wet summers, poorly draining soil, and cold winter temperatures. Even so, I could not be deterred when I found a small packet of cactus seeds available through one of my favorite … Read More

Crown Of Thorns Cactus – A Thorny Houseplant That’s Really A Succulent

Garden Tips

January 11, 2021

When I was a kid, I got one of those little barrel cactus plants from the grocery store that costs a dollar or two. I thought it was so cute but quickly lost interest. Apparently, I thought a cactus didn’t need any water at all, and it died. As I got older and learned more, I bought and grew a thriving crown of thorns, one of my favorite succulents that is not quite a cactus. Crown of Thorns Houseplant After killing that little grocery store cactus, I lost interest in plants for a while. I never really got into cactus growing again either. But one day at the garden center, I looked through the cactus area and found a beautiful, thorny houseplant with cheery, delicate flowers. I loved it. The crown of thorns cactus I bought that day is Euphorbia milli, and it and other Euphorbia plants were tucked … Read More

Schlumbergera Cacti – Fond Memories Growing Christmas Cactus

Garden Tips

Janice

January 10, 2021

It doesn’t matter whether it is my Christmas cactus or anyone else’s, as soon as I see one, I am instantly reminded of my paternal grandmother. Her plant was the inspiration behind my small collection of Christmas cactus plants, which are the oldest plants in my household. Every spring she moved her houseplant, with the flowing stems and segmented leaves, out on the front porch to spend the summer. I can still see it sitting on its table, looking very loose and carefree when our family would visit. I can’t recall seeing it in bloom, however, even though we always made a trip to Grandma’s house near Christmas. Growing Schlumbergera Cacti I am not sure whether she had the actual Christmas cactus or the Thanksgiving cactus, both in the Schlumbergera genus. For those who don’t grow these plants, the difference is in the edge of the segments. The Thanksgiving … Read More

Fittonia And The Rubber Tree Plant

Garden Tips

Houseplants are a lot like people, especially kids. Yes, this might be a controversial statement, but it’s my opinion and here’s why. One of our writers mentioned that picking a favorite houseplant was like picking a favorite child and you simply can’t do it (or shouldn’t anyway). This is absolutely true. Parents love their children equally, or at least they’re supposed to, although I’ve known a few that do seem to favor one child more than another. The same can be said of our houseplants. I have many but love them all the same. That being said, like children, each of our houseplants has certain traits which makes them a little more “special” to us. We still love them equally, but in different ways. Plant Traits and Kids: Fittonia and the Rubber Tree Plant Take my kids, for example. Both are different as night and day; yet, I love them...

How I Met My Dracaena Houseplant

Garden Tips

When I first returned to San Francisco for graduate school, I had no houseplants. I had lived for over a decade in France’s Basque Country where I had an entire mountain of trees and bushes to enjoy as well as a big garden. It felt odd and lonely to be without plants to take care of. As you may imagine, this circumstance did not last very long. Hello Dracaena Corn Plant The very first plant I acquired in San Francisco was a corn plant (Dracaena fragrans). I had actually grown some corn in France accidentally, when corn I put out for the birds and field mice germinated. So, when I saw a plant sitting on the corner of Anza and 42nd Avenue, I thought of my corn at home in France. I walked over and found a man – Jared – with a lot of stuff on … Read More
