Keeping celosia happy during winter?

Houston, tx zone 9b. I have a celosia plant that loves our hot, wet climate but as the days get colder I’ll need to move it inside. I have a large, east-facing window i can put it by but I’m not sure if this will give the plant enough heat once it starts dipping below 40 degrees. In Houston, the coldest days of the year probably won’t be until January and it’ll probably just be a few days of 30-40 degree weather. Most of the winter here is around 50-60 degrees.

Should I get a heat lamp and put the celosia by the window or will it be fine without one?

Graveyard Plants

Hi all, just wondering if anyone has any ideas on what small plants I could take to a graveyard. I am moving 3ish hrs away from my hometown early 2025, but my friend and his mother have a shared plot here that I like to look after and keep pretty. I have permission to bring and grow small plants/flowers on site, but I won’t be back here regularly to be able to water them. Any suggestions? Or would I just be better off stocking up on fake flowers? I much prefer live plants and flowers but I’ll happily leave fakes if the plants will die without care. Thanks all!

Question about Tulips

Hello! I’m planning on growing some tulips for my girlfriend because they are her favorite Flowers. Super duper new to all this so I don’t really even know where to start. I live in MN and plan on planting them as soon as possible whether indoors or out. If any of y’all have recommendations on how and when to plant and stuff, I would be extremely grateful! Thanks!

Odd growth on pepper seedling

Does anyone know what might cause this type of abnormal growth on a pepper seedling (scotch bonnet) and it’s also starting to appear on my 4 month old jalapeño plant as well. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I’m stumped at the moment.

I have this beautiful plant named Oscar who I have been neglecting to be honest . He is a Bluestem yucca.I impulsively cut off the stalks cause it was covered in yellow leaves . Now I’m worried I cut it in the wrong place and messed up . I watered him afterwards and am hoping for the best but please let me know anything else I can do
