Repotting House Plants

If you're going through some serious gardening withdrawals, you may want to consider repotting some of your house plants this winter. But wait until mid-February when the days are becoming longer and the plant begins to go into an active growth cycle again. Then be sure the pot is no more than 1'' wider than the existing one. You may think I'll wait until Spring when you send them outdoors. But get let's get real. With the flurry of Spring activities, worrying about house plants is not going to be on the shortlist. So take the time when you have time on your hands to get the plants ready for a very productive outdoor season.
