I have always thought of planting a cutting garden, but that is all the further it has gotten is my thoughts. I always cut and I force the forsythia early. The daffodils look so beautiful all over the house in the spring. I love astramerium. I usually buy them at the grocery store. I also have African violets and several continuous flowering begonias. Those continuos flowering begonias are wonderful. They bloom profusely all year long. The double blooms are about 2 inches across. They are not fussy one bit. They take quite a bit of neglect. You can put them on a coffee table, an end table or a book shelf. Just as long as they get some light from a window they are happy.
