We've had some greens overwinter outside in the past, but not this year. This winter is promising to be a real winter. :)<br /><br />I'd love for you to share your tips with my readers at Fabulously Frugal Thursday: http://www.alifeinbalance.net/fabulously-frugal-thursday-linky-party49/Barb @ A Life in Balancehttp://www.alifeinbalance.net/incorporating-natural-holidays-nature-walks/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824809577653587454.post-30636245435003198482014-01-09T22:36:01.872-05:002014-01-09T22:36:01.872-05:00How fun to grow plants indoor.

I'm going to try that next winter. This year, I had two tomato plants that were in containers, but they were sickly and provided a pathetic harvest, so I didn't bring those in. The tomato plants in the garden were beasts: 7-8 feet tall. There was no place for those anywhere.<br /><br />UPDATE: After about 3 weeks indoors, the pepper plants are starting to die back. The article I read said that they would do that, and then you prune them to the main branches. So everything seems to be going according to plan.Skeltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01909517065365135133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824809577653587454.post-9422618109260443862013-11-23T20:28:47.599-05:002013-11-23T20:28:47.599-05:00So far all I have ever overwintered is flowering p...So far all I have ever overwintered is flowering plants. You are definitely making me think about bringing in some pepper plants or a tomato or two (if they can over winter).<br /><br />God bless.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16051183778965359500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824809577653587454.post-61578882777899379342013-11-19T21:45:41.653-05:002013-11-19T21:45:41.653-05:00I live in Ohio, so that means Winter!

I decided this year to grow the rosemary in pots. Honestly, I wasn't happy with the growth of it in pots. It grew much better in the ground. If I can get it to stay alive in my house through the Winter, I think I will plant them in the ground in Spring and just pot them to bring them in for the Winter. I don't have good windows at all for plants, so I am keeping my fingers crossed that they will make it until Spring. <br /> I have a penpal in Texas who has a rosemary plant that is huge and taller than her! I never knew they could get that big!Darlenenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824809577653587454.post-66315051535685319192013-11-19T21:27:35.173-05:002013-11-19T21:27:35.173-05:00Does your rosemary grow in pots year-round or do y...Does your rosemary grow in pots year-round or do you pot it up just to move it inside?
