K-State Research and Extension has several lists of plants that are proven to do well in our unpredictable Kansas climate. From trees, shrubs, to vegetables, make sure to check out these recommendations before hitting up the garden center.

Terrariums are fun displays of plants and can be the perfect gift for friends or loved ones on Valentine’s Day. They are most useful for small plants and when well planted they can grow with minimal care. All you need are a few supplies you can find at the dollar store, or your local green house. Give it a try this winter to brighten your day!
