Wednesday, January 23, 2008 Many people tell me they do not have a green thumb or are not gardeners. I always tell them anyone can grow plants successfully indoors or outdoors with some good directions.
Others argue those who grow plants indoors are not gardeners. Well, I strongly disagree.
I started growing houseplants when I was about five years old. I had houseplants long before I ever had my own property where I could plant flower beds and a vegetable garden.
