MOVING PLANTS INDOORS

Here are some tips from garden specialist Marie Peacock and gardener Debi Borden-Miller for bringing potted plants indoors:

• Acclimate plants gradually, starting on a porch or patio.

• Trim plants back by about a third.

• Wash plants, pots and saucers to keep bugs and dirt outside.

• Put plants in a bright, sunny window.

• Water house plants about once a week.
