Plant a garden that fits in the palm of your hand: a tiny terrarium. Create your own or start with a terrarium kit.
FOR many of us, the winter months are a long time away from the garden — too long! We yearn for seedlings, soil and sunshine. Here's how you can get back to the garden: Plant some seeds. Treat yourself to a flowering houseplant. Make plans for the best garden ever. It'll be spring before you know it.

Turn Up the Lights
Few things are as rewarding as harvesting a salad in February or coaxing an orchid back into bloom. Set up a SunLite Garden and you'll be able to grow edibles like herbs and greens indoors. The full-spectrum lights are also perfect for blooming plants, such as African violets, orchids and hibiscus. And of course a SunLite Garden is the place for starting seeds for your outdoor vegetable and flower gardens.

And next year, you can repeat the show, bigger and better; this article shows you how to plant and care for your amaryllis — and get it to rebloom.
