People reach out to brighter days and warmer weather anyway they can.
One of the easiest ways to satisfy this need is to purchase forced bulb plants such as crocuses, tulips, narcissus and hyacinths. Unfortunately since these plants don't flower long enough to make it through until spring, many of us are left with several pots of dead plants by the time the first crocuses appear. These plants may be withered but they aren't dead yet. With a little extra work you can save them and give them a second life in your garden, resulting in more value for your buck. However, they will not grow indoors again so do not attempt to force them a second time.
