When I was looking for a house I knew that a crawl space was NOT happening - that was a deal breaker for me. My marital home had a crawl space and our pipes used to freeze....and my husband would shimmy under the house with the creepy crawlies....well, let me tell you, there's no way that you would get ME under the house so therefore NO CRAWL SPACE!!!

I winter over many potted plants in our sun porch. They get a bit spindly, and once in a while I forget to water them for a week or two :-( , but they pretty much always make it and I think they bloom so beautifully all summer to thank us!!
