You don't need acres of space to reap the benefits of tending a garden. You can grow your own oasis if you live in an apartment with no soil space, or somewhere that has a tiny patch to call your own. It just takes some clever planning and preparation and you'll soon be a proud plant parent.
Plants lend colour, create focal points and can be incorporated in containers, hanging baskets, on windowsills, mounted on a wall, or placed on pedestals at different heights to create texture in a room.
1. Size matters
It's easier to grow plants in larger containers than smaller ones. Bigger pots can hold more soil, which stays moist for longer, and can better withstand temperature fluctuations.
Smaller containers and hanging baskets might seem more convenient, but they do dry out much quicker, especially in summer, and will require more frequent watering.
