Welcoming Your Houseplants Back Home
Houseplant owners are sometimes tricked into believing that their tropical plants go through a rest or dormancy period when brought indoors for the winter. Growth slows or halts, and they don’t need water or fertilizer as often. Some tropicals such as caladium, canna lily, and alocasia (plants with tubers) do naturally take a rest due to cooler temperatures and shorter days, while others are programmed to defoliate in response to environmental shifts from wet to dry season. Most tropical plants, however, can still thrive indoors in the cooler months if set up for success! Â
What Is a Cultivar?
Have you ever looked at a plant tag and wondered what all the different names mean? So unlike plants that evolve their characteristics in the wild, a Cultivar exists because someone deliberately chose it for a particular color, flavor, size, disease resistance, or other quality worth preserving.
Cape Cod’s Native Roses
There are three roses native to Cape Cod, which are actually easy to identify, as they are distinct from hybrid roses. Fragrant and long-lasting blooms are pink with yellow centers, yielding vibrant red and orange edible berries (rose hips) in late summer, and burgundy fall foliage that adds interest to your landscape. Depending on your growing conditions, you may choose Carolina rose, Virginia rose, or Swamp rose.
