Brr, it's getting chilly! Winter has finally arrived, even if it took its sweet time. Now's the perfect time to embrace those cosy vibes—think comfy, warm clothes, steaming mugs of coffee, curling up under your favourite fuzzy blanket and nurturing your indoor garden to spark creativity. So, let’s talk about how we can get your indoor garden all set for the winter season!
WHY DO WE NEED INDOOR GARDENS?
In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it’s easy to forget to take a little time for ourselves. We can get caught up in work and responsibilities, leaving behind the simple pleasures that bring us joy. Indoor gardens are a fantastic way to reconnect with that sense of peace. They create a calming atmosphere after a long day right in the comfort of your home. You don’t need a vast space or countless plants—just a cosy little corner with a handful of lovely greens can do the trick.
Besides, having an indoor garden has many benefits, such as better air quality inside your home, the ability to focus and be more productive and a better flow of creativity.
SPICE UP YOUR INDOOR GARDEN WITH THESE FUN IDEAS
Indian winters can get cold. Instead of venturing out in the open to get fresh air, create your own green space with these exciting ways to make them all pretty and cosy.
Hanging Gardens
Floating planters can create a green haven in your home garden. Plants such as money plants, English ivy, and creeping figs cascade down their baskets, adding drama to your rooms. Place the planters at varying heights to create a wave-like pattern.
Hanging planters are easy to maintain, save a lot of floor space, and make your home greener and healthier.
Create A Desktop Garden
We all need a creative space to work and let our thinking facilities run wild. What better way to do that than by replacing boring pen stands and showpieces with a few green friends? Desktop planters look beautiful and elegant and come in various shapes and sizes. You can choose from multiple indoor desk plants on our website and add natural charm to your spaces. Many studies have found that being in the company of nature boosts productivity and creativity. Having said that, plants such as snake plants, money plants, rubber plants or the peace lily will make great desk companions for you. Place them in pretty little ceramic planters and see how your workstation comes alive, literally.
Create A Winter Herb Garden
The winter season brings a horde of delicious veggies and herbs that flourish in the chilly weather. And one of the best places to grow herbs in your home is in the kitchen by the windowsill. Since these plants require a lot of sunlight and ventilation to thrive, your kitchen window is the perfect place to plant them and enjoy their many health benefits. Herbs such as coriander, curry leaves, basil (Tulsi), Ajwain, and mint do well in chilly weather. They are perfect for growing as part of your kitchen garden. Imagine plucking a few fresh leaves of the Tulsi plant in the morning to make tea, enjoying your herb garden and inhaling their sweet fragrance as the water boils.
It is time to plant shopping if you pictured that, and it made your face smile.
- Create An Indoor Jungle
There are so many types of plant parents out there! Some prefer a minimalistic style, others get super creative, and then some love to create a cosy indoor jungle vibe. If you’re one of those jungle enthusiasts, there are many fun ways to bring your space to life with indoor plants. Choose dull corners in your home and start filling them with large plants such as the Fiddle-leaf fig or the Araucaria-the Christmas plant. You can even decorate it with fairy lights and light a few candles around it on Christmas Day. Additionally, add cute plants to your coffee tables, bookshelves, TV cabinets, and basically any space you find empty. Just remember to read about the care requirements of the plants before placing them in a particular location.
CONCLUSION
With rising pollution levels and the AQI meter ready to break due to toxic gases in the city, having a thriving indoor garden is more than just a hobby. It is essential and will help you and your family breathe better and stay healthy. Incorporate the above gardening ideas into your homes this season, and while you are at it, send us a picture of your efforts, too!
Happy Gardening!
