		<description><![CDATA[Most of us are familiar with Mother-in-law’s tongue plant also called snake plant. It’s found in homes, offices, shops, workplaces and any other place that needs a tough and hardy indoor plant. Until 2017 it was officially called Sansevieria trifasciata. Subsequent  scientific study has now found it to be a Dracaena species so it&#8217;s official [&#8230;]]]></description>

Around our local area, I’m seeing more of these plants than usual. The relatively rainy growing season may have something to do with it since they prefer semi-damp environments.

		<description><![CDATA[The arctic blast we had in November caught a lot of us off guard. Temperatures at our house dipped down to nine above zero. Along with the cold air we got about eight or nine inches of snow. It turns out the snow was actually a blessing in disguise. It was like a warm blanket [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Gladiolus are one of the most popular flowers in the world. Typically, glads are used to fill floral arrangements providing lots of color and their upright spikes add a vertical element. Many gardeners from the baby boomer generation think of funerals whenever they see glads. That’s because the flowers were ubiquitous in funeral homes back [&#8230;]]]></description>

With normal highs in the low fifties and lows in the mid-thirties, some parts of the natural world were caught unprepared too. I’m sure our witch hazel bush wasn’t expecting over a half-foot [&#8230;]]]></description>

Why couldn’t someone just get some bulbs and plant them in the spring like a potato and let them grow and bloom? Plants need certain conditions [&#8230;]]]></description>

For decades, doctors implied their patient’s allergy symptoms were caused by goldenrod pollen when in fact, the actual culprit was ragweed. The thinking behind it was ragweed flowers are relatively inconspicuous compared to flowers on other plants. Unless you’re really [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; It’s surprisingly easy to introduce an invasive plant into your garden. It often happens when gardeners share plants with one another. We have a few examples of that happening in our garden. One of those is Pinellia tripartita a plant native to China and Japan. I’ve heard it called Japanese jack-in-the-pulpit, although there’s another [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many of the lilacs I’ve seen have put on a nice show of flowers this spring. Some could have been even better if their owners had removed the spent flowers last spring. Not many people are aware that deadheading lilacs is the best thing you can do for them to stimulate better flowers next year. [&#8230;]]]></description>
