My little struggling window garden

I bought a new plant the other day. A christmas cactus. It's in full bloom at the moment. And it's supposed to be able to handle the profuse lack of light in my north window.

My plants try really hard. I water them, and feed them fertilizer, but they still look scraggly, 'cause they're reaching so hard towards the light. Well good luck to you guys.

Except for one, for some wierd reason, and you would think a pair of orange trees would do the crappiest in a north window cause they're practically tropical plants, but no, my two little orange trees that I started from seed are just givin' her. Actually, I don't remember if they're oranges or grapefruits or lemons or limes. I guess I'll find out one day. I noticed they hadn't gotten any new leaves in a while, so I gave them some more fertilizer, and they just sucked that up and pushed out four new leaves. They're happy little orange trees. Lemon trees. whatever.

When Nathan and I move in together, I will be making sure that wherever we move in, it has at least one window that's not north facing.
