Indoor plants respond well

I Many people ask if cala
diums tubers can be used
more than one year.
v
The answer is yes, but they
must go through a period of
dormancy after the current
growing season before they
can resume growth.
You can help them enter
dormancy by slowly with
holding water until the
leaves die back.
Once the leaves die back,

From page iB
I have acted that way with
her many, times over the
years of my life. Not too
long ago, she insisted - that
is she badgered, persisted
and harangued - that I eat
some collard greens she
had cooked drenched in
some kind of hog grease.
“They’re good for you.
You need 'em for your
digestion and to give ya
iron.”
I took one bite and shud
dered all over. “Yuck!” I
stuck my tongue out, dra
matically trying to shake
the taste off of it. “That is
awful.” The only difference
between mama and me is
that I didn’t keep eating
them.
But that brings me to
today’s thought: Why is
that we - especially the
well-mannered, thoughtful
Southerners we are - treat
our own families with such
a lack of courtesy at times?
Had either of us tasted
anything cooked by some
one outside of the family
and disliked it, we’d both
hid our disgust. And to be
honest, I would have even
lied about it, saying some
thing like, “Hmmm. That’s
hice.”
Mama, though, wouldn’t
have lied. You probably
knew that, though. You’ve

an ugly face and she sim

anything.
Isn’t it a shame that
we, as a well-mannered
society, treat our families
the worse? mama will say
things to me that my big
gest enemy wouldn’t think
and I’ll pop back with
something that is tinged
with just a bit too much
hatefulness.
These are the people who
love us - or so it is rumored
- unconditionally. Yet, we
think nothing of saying
hurtful things or dispens
ing with niceties like thank
you notes or even a spoken
word of appreciation.
As usual, I called mama
the next morning to check
on her.
“Did you sleep good?” I
asked.
“No, I had heartburn all
night. Nearly killed me.”
I’m no longer offended.
Then she added. “But you
did a real good job mixing
it all together. Normally,
you’re not a bad cook.”
“Thank you,” I replied,
recognizing the embedded
compliment.
Please notice that we’re
working on our manners.
Thank you.

Caladium tubers cannot
tolerate being stored in a
cold basement or in a refrig
erator. Neither should they
be clumped together in bags,
as this will cause them to
rot.
Tubers can be left in the
pots in which they were
grown, if they are kept in
