1. Watering Bulbs: These "bird" shaped bulbs with the open mouths for adding water is what I have been successfully using in my hanging plants (and in some outdoor plants even for the hottest time of the year.)
2. French lavender (Lavandula dentata) can grow well indoors. They’re not as fragrant as English lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), but they are capable of adapting better to indoor environments. Two other good types to consider; Canary Island lavender (Lavandula canariensis) and Fern leaf lavender (Lavandula multifida) which tolerates wet conditions better than other lavenders. <--- I am ordering one today and will update you on how it goes in the Home Space and Reason Group Facebook page (link above!) I’ll be interested to see if I can pull off not just keeping it alive but achieving a bloom and the scent that makes this an ideal concept in theory - but we’ll see if I can pull it off in real life! Who is up for this light hearted and fun challenge with me?
