Winter Windowsill Gardening
The beauty of plants in your home all year
Just because it is getting chilly outside doesn’t mean you have to relinquish the happiness that gardening brings.
While your outdoor garden lays dormant, a winter garden on your sunny windowsill is sure to bring smiles.
Winter windowsill gardening is a great hobby for the whole family to enjoy.
You can grow vegetables and herbs or use your imagination planning a thematic garden. Herbs and vegetables are the practical choice but what fun it would be creating a unique garden project.
If you choose to grow vegetables you may require an additional light source. The grey days of winter fall short with sunshine. Setting your window box in a southern or eastern location helps.
If you are growing edible plants in your windowsill garden they are a fantastic choice. Vegetables and herbs can live with less humidity and do well with some shade.
Some great vegetable choices are radish, hot pepper, bell pepper, cherry tomato, spinach, onion and carrot.
