Root Bound
Plants are a great way to jazz up any room. They add life, fresh air and cheer to any décor. While recently brainstorming on how to redecorate my home office (a/k/a The Mother Ship), I knew one thing for sure – I wanted lots of plants. Succulents are my greens of choice. They’re beautiful,…
