Before winter hit, I brought in a little strawberry plant that I planted in a clay pot (one of those tiered terracotta pots with several holes around the side and a large one on top).  It seems to be staying green, even if it's not growing much.  When it starts getting warmer, I'll acclimate it to the outside again.  I don't have a green thumb, but I feel the extended life of this little plant is a success. 

So, I'm growing the courage for another trial.  Does anyone know if we northerners can grow cilantro as an indoor plant, possibly year round?   Would there be any downside to this?
