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 />
