Gardeners swap tips for overwintering lemon verbena indoors
Original: Anybody have tips for overwintering a lemon verbena indoors? Mine always does ok until about February and then has a dra
A gardener is asking for advice on keeping a lemon verbena alive indoors over winter, saying the plant does well until February, when it suffers a dramatic near-death spider mite infestation. Their usual approach is finding a good spot and watering regularly, and they want other suggestions as winter sets in and houseplant pests become a common problem.
Why now: Midwinter is when indoor overwintering plants commonly struggle with dry air and spider mites, prompting a call for advice.
