Winter brings bright light and blossoms<br />
Text: ALICE COETZEE<br />
Indoor plant of<br />
the month<br />
Tulips are exotic, colourful<br />
and best of all are happy<br />
to bloom indoors. A pot<br />
of tulips will flower for a<br />
month or more because<br />
each pot contains more<br />
than one bulb. The secret<br />
is to buy a pot with mostly<br />
closed buds because<br />
each bloom only lasts a<br />
week. To bring the tulips<br />
into flower, place the pot<br />
where it receives plenty of<br />
bright, indirect light but<br />
not direct sun because<br />
this makes the blooms go<br />
over faster. Let the potting<br />
soil dry out moderately<br />
before watering.<br />
