Jennifer Brennan from Chalet Nursery in Wilmette joined ABC7 News at 11 to help us with a spring refresh.
She said one great way to create a spa-like oasis inside with orchids.

Brennan breaks down what we should expect and how can we protect our spring plants in this brutal cold, as well as gives us tips on when it's a good time to start buying outdoor flowers and shrubs.
