Winter Returned

So the snow came back after some very cold days and blanketed everything. I'm hoping this coating will stay because we could use some build up. The neighbours have their backyard ice rinks and the river's starting to freeze along the banks. Winter seems to have finally come to stay.
I moved the aloe back into the window because it was getting pale in the center.


Looks like it's doing fine now and the  other plants in the front window seem to be doing okay.


Aloe's looking darker.

Lavender's thriving.

Chamomile good, Oregano still small.Calendula pale, Sage small.Chives weak but still holding on.
Over all they seem to be doing okay. Do you keep indoor plants? How do you keep them strong and healthy through the cold dark winter months?

  1. I don't have a lot if indoor plants because once spring arrives I just don't have much time for them. Everytime I water them they get a very diluted dose of water soluable organic fertilizer. Seems to work.

  2. Thanks for your comment.

    I have a bad habit of killing plants with kindness(too much water, too much light, too much fertilizer) so I've been trying to avoid giving them anything other than water. Maybe I'll add some nitrogen next time and see what happens.
