Bothsucculents(Euphorbia trigona , Zones 10–12 ) and fern(Nephrolepisexaltata , Zones 10–12 ) share sunroom distance side by side .

Lots of green and sun are particularly welcome after a few month of wintertime !

Warm sunshine is streaming in from the cold outdoors .

A giant leopard plant(Farfugiumjaponicum , Zones 7–10 ) , a tree philodendron(Philodendron bipinnatifidum , Zones 10–12 ) , and some graphics divvy up a corner .
