Portage Library Offers Program on Houseplants
The Portage Lake District Library will offer the third program of its gardening through the winter series.
Master Gardener Lynn Watson will present "Houseplant Happiness" on Tuesday, March 3, at 7:00 p.m. in the community room.
Watson will explain the proper selection, care, and rescue of houseplants. "Houseplant happiness depends on all three," she explained. Watson will have a variety of plants to demonstrate and explain dormancy, repotting, what kinds of plants go where, why is my plant sick, and how can I make it feel better.
She will also explain how indoor plants absorb toxins, add oxygen and humidity to the air, relax mental stress levels, reduce home and office noise, and show how green environments have 50% - 60 % fewer airborne molds and bacteria in them.
Watson is also the owner of Interiorscapes, a company devoted to professionally helping homes and offices welcome healthy green plants into their living and work environments.
There will be handouts and all plant enthusiasts are invited.
