ORONO — University of Maine Cooperative Extension has expanded and updated a series of bulletins about growing houseplants in Maine.

“Tips for Growing Houseplants in Maine: Caring for Houseplants in Maine” provides guidelines for growing healthy indoor plants even during winter, creating new plants with cuttings, and using artificial light. Diagnosing common problems and controlling insects and diseases also are to be addressed.

Many extension bulletins are available for free download; the full publications catalog is at extensionpubs.umext.maine.edu. For more information or to place an order, call 207-581-3792 or email extension.orders@maine.edu.
