Place House Plants Outdoors in June House plants, both the foliage and flowering kinds can be placed outside in a sheltered area, say Extension ornamental horticulturists at The Penn sylvania State University But remember foliage plants such as snake plant or philodendron are best put in a lightly shaded area. Most flowering plants such as geraniums do best in full sunlight. To prevent the soil from drying out too rapidly, plunge the pots into the soil up to their runs. Do not let plants dry out during a drought. TRY A CLASSIFIED AD! PHONE 626-2191 or 394-3047
