    I have brought some annual plants into my plant room to see how long they would last. I can see my impatient may last-I did have flower buds until they dropped off, which tells me I'll have to give em some epsom salt water to hold the buds next time.
    I did manage to get a petunia to flower.

    I'm hoping this little one will hang on till next spring. Only time will tell. I'll enjoy anything I can get to flower for now.

    That one has a very pretty colour.
    I hope that you can get it to prolongue it's blooming indoors.
