How do you build an indoor garden?

Would you like to have an indoor garden of your very own? One way to do it is to buy house plants. Philodendrons, sanseveria, jades, and rubber plants, which grow wild in tropical areas, make good house plants. These plants don’t need much light – just a warm room, a little water, and a dusting now and then.

You can but house plants on a window sill or table near plenty of sunlight. Keep the soil damp, but not muddy. Flower pots have holes in them to let water seep out, so put a dish under each pot to catch the water. If your plants grow bigger, you can move them to bigger pots!

You can grow plants in clean tin cans or cottage-cheese cartons. Ask a grown-up to put a few small holes in the bottom of these home-made pots. Plants such as ivy or philodendrons look great in glass bowls. But a glass bowl must have a little gravel at the bottom to catch the water that seeps out of the soil.
