Spring cleaning

The warm weather is coming (Yipeeeee!!!!) and was a good time to bring this one out of the garage. I think this pot overwintered rather quite well. It was under purple grow lights, no water and kept in an unheated garage. I don’t remember watering it since last November but I might me wrong as I didn’t get much detritus from it.

Good looking plants! They did very well over the winter. They will benefit from fresh air and “real” light this spring and summer.

Are you going to leave the planter that way or are you going to move some out into individual pots?

Thank you socks. They sure did better than I expected. I will gradually acclimate them to full sun and then plant them back in the ground by Mother’s Day (in my zone that’s when its safe to assume danger of frost has passed). Pic below was from last October.
