Sill


Many people have window sill that is empty that they would like to fill. The best way to fill up a window sill is to make a window sill garden. There’re only a few small steps that you have to do to successfully make that window sill into a garden.

• Find the best location – You want to make sure that your location is optimal. The optimal sill would be one that allows a lot of direct sunlight in during the day and that is wide open.
• Containers – You have a couple options for containers for your garden. You can either buy a window box or several flower pots. You can improve the look of either of them by decorating them.
• Plant choice – This is the most important step. You should choose plants that fit your lifestyle. If you’re not home a lot than you should choose a plant that doesn’t require a lot of maintenance. If your home is in a warmer climate you should choose a plant that does better under those conditions.

Tips for Improving Your Window Sill Garden

• You can further decorate your window sill garden by adding colorful smooth rocks to the pots or the sill.
• Check the plants everyday for dryness.
• Try growing vegetables inside. This will allow you to have fresh vegetables all year round.
