basement window

Is in full use this winter, expanding the space I have for plants in sun. I have a cardboard panel there to keep the worst of the draft off. Here's my pink-centered coleus that was simply cut down in its pot, regrowing:

Ginger still has leaves, it hasn't gone dormant yet

some of the rhizome pushing above the soil.

My five-year-old pepper, the only one I saved to overwinter this year. It's kind of shabby looking, but doing better than I expected for a rather cool location.

I cut down the lemon verbena when it dropped all its leaves after frost. Cut it back and brought it inside. Didn't expect it to break dormancy until springtime- March or April perhaps. But here it is sprouting new leaves already.
