Flower questions

I suspect at least a few of the people reading my LJ have some experience with growing flowers or other plants in an apartment (okay, I know for sure at least one does), and I figured I'd solicit some advice behind the cut.

( Looking for interesting things that will do okay in a pint of dirt, basically )

And now back to reading my comics.

Comics for September 16, 2009

( Lots of stuff in the Late Books section. New books of note: Spider-Man #605, Atomic Robo v4 #5 )

   Dave Van Domelen, "Kids, don't try this at home. I am a trained damsel in distress." - Mary Jane Watson, The Amazing Spider-Man #605

   Bonus quote: "Computers that solve problems don't look like this. They're unassuming boxes on a desk. They're refrigerators without the exciting brand names. Computers that are evil have all kinds of unnecessary ornamentation. This thing's VENTING STEAM! Why's it doing that?" - Atomic Robo
