Tiffany and Lin, Your porches look lovely with the plants on them. I usually have my living room stuffed with house plants but since we have gotten the GH most of them go down there for the winter and rotate up to the house when they are in bloom. A few days ago I brought one of the orchids up that will open soon and took one down that had just finished. I do have my AV's in the house and a couple of large plants that just didn't fit into the GH (after all you can only get so many in there). I put most of them outside for the summer. Some of the big tropicals get left in thier pots but buried in the ground, some go out to the Gazebo, The orchids stayed in the GH for the summer.
Here is a Bougie that is blooming in the GH right now, a few years ago before the GH it would have been sitting in the living room and looking so very dramatic with a blanket of snow covering the yard behind it. But the plants are doing better spread out between the house and GH than all crammed together like before. Plus during the holidays I would need to move everything that I could carry up stairs to make room for the Christmas Tree and guests.
