I move my plants all around the house trying to get sun. :-(
It is no easy task when cloudy days make up the majority of the
days. There are 3 amaryliss are in one south facing window that were
moved around 10 am from a northeast (I think) window....they will
be moved again to sit on an windowless table for the night since
the windows are much too cold at night. I am just waiting to drop
one of these large pots when I rush around trying not to step on
a running dog....doesn't everybody live like this? :-)
Cheers,
