The pan of water can be kept on top of space heaters like wood and coal stoves, which are coming back into use. House plants also help inc- rease humidity by giving off moisture. A few hanging bask- ets and a few potted plants scattered around could help cut your heating bill. Just remember, with higher humidity you will be comfort- able with a lower temperature and save energy too. . .DON'T OVERFEED HOUSE PLANTS -- When house plants begin to show signs of poor performance or dying, the first reaction of many homeowners is to fertilize them.' As a res- ult, many plants are overfed. This is especially true in win- ter when the plants receive limited amounts of light. With less light, they need less fer- [ilizer.
