Question of the Day
I have an old hibiscus tree indoors. It’s in a cool room and gets indirect sunlight. It now has started to drop leaves and hasn’t bloomed for months. I only water it when it gets dry. Do you think I need to repot it?
– Answer


Puzzle of the Day
Why did the lion spit out the clown?

In many weeds to keep the cold away;
Yet did he quake and quiver, like to quell,
And blow his nails to warm them if he may.

–Edmund Spenser (c. 1552–99), English poet
