内容摘要:In many ways it overshadowed a traditional televised debate the day before. The substance of that debate did not seem to change the trajectory of the campaign. The thing Poles discussed most was a brief moment when Nawrocki inserted something into his mouth which he later said was a tobacco pouch. Some have questioned if he is fit to be president if he couldn’t get through a two-hour debate without taking a hit of tobacco.

are going a step further, adding plants not only to the bathroom but inside the shower, either on the floor, hanging from the ceiling, placed on the ledge of the tub or on a shelf above it.If you go this route, take care to keep them out of the path of the water stream. Tropical plants like humidity but not soggy soil. In fact, they’ll likely need less water than their out-of-shower counterparts.

Plants best suited for jungle showers include prayer plant (Calathea), moth orchid (Phalaenopsis), golden pothos/devil’s ivy (Pothos), flamingo flower (Anthurium), Chinese money plant (Pilea), heart-leaf philodendron (Philodendron), spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum), peacock/prayer plant (Calathea), Peperomia spp., bird’s nest fern (Asplenium nidus) and lucky bamboo (Dracaena sanderiana).Although eucalyptus plants aren’t ideal for growing in a shower (they don’t like moist soil), you can benefit from their aromatherapy and decongestant properties by gathering a bundle of fresh-cut stems, running them over with a rolling pin to release their oils, and tying them into a bouquet. Hang the bundle from the shower head for several weeks of scented steam showers. Replace it when the fragrance fades, or the bouquet looks wilted or begins to mold.Outside the shower, place aloe vera, Chinese money plant, most Dracaena species, ficus spp. and wandering dude (Tradescantia zebrina) to the side of a bright window.

Boston fern (Nephrolepis exaltata), flamingo flower and Monstera spp. require direct light, so should sit right in front of one.A lack of natural sunlight needn’t stop you. Plants that grow in the shade of large trees in the wild and other low-light plants are well-suited for darker bath or powder rooms. Consider Chinese evergreen (Aglaonema), English ivy (Hedera helix), snake plant (Dracaena trifasciata), philodendron, lucky bamboo, ferns, ZZ plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia), peace lily (Spathiphyllum) or the amenable spider plant.

It’s best to avoid placing cacti and succulents, fruiting plants and any that are native to deserts or have low water needs in a humid environment.

In general, seek out tropical plants with sunlight requirements that match your bathroom’s conditions.SOMIS, Calif. (AP) — Andreas Tompros lost his home and at least a third of his avocado orchard to

last year, but the 47-year-old grower is not worried about his farm making a comeback.While California farmers often rattle off a list of challenges they face including high labor costs,

and overseas competition, many avocado growers say they have a good thing going. A key reason may come as a surprise to some — Mexican imports.When the United States lifted its ban on Mexican avocados in 1997, California growers worried at first that the imported fruit would displace their production.
