peace in our time

Any fool can grow peace lilies all year around. The proof is right here in my living room. I water my peace lily once a week during the winter and twice a week in the summer. It rewards me extravagantly in the spring and almost throughout the summer. I can now count seven blooms with numbers eight and nine on the way…eventually it maintains about 25 beautiful, white swan-necked mini-sculptures for months on end, new ones blooming as I pinch off the depleted. Any old fool can grow ‘em.
