. . . and now you have, jj. hee hee! wanna see my marjoram?

brit, if there's anything I learned from The Great Fruit Fly Pestilence of '08, it's this: Don't bring happy, established plants into the house and expect them to live. Start them from seed. Or for the ones that don't come true to seed or are particularly difficult to start from seed, take a cutting and root it. Or buy plants that aren't much bigger than seedlings. It's just difficult for a full-sized plant to adjust to a new environment.

also, how's the humidity in your house? I've killed many a plant with low winter humidity.
