Oklahoma Gardens
The Oklahoman recommends a few cactus in your tabletop garden in the Sooner State. (That is Oklahoma, isn't it? I think so, but who can know for sure. Maybe it's the Buckeye State or the Wheelbarrow State.)
Oh. So they're not telling you to add cactus to your tabletop garden after all, those crazy Oklahomans.
Close your eyes and visualize an early spring, a trickling stream and fragrant, fresh blooms....
Create a cheerful early spring garden in your kitchen window with flowering bulbs.... Balance a paper-white narcissus, hyacinth or crocus on the rim of a glass or narrow vase with just the roots in water.... A few blossoms on a single stem of freesia will add fragrance and color indoors and should last for weeks in a cool setting.
The thought of growing a delicate orchid could cause a new gardener to opt for a cactus garden.
