Big plants can surely make a bold statement—but are you sure they are the best ones to grow for your home?

Like us, plants can also be picky when it comes to the environment they live in. Make sure to choose the best ones that are compatible with your weather conditions and will easily grow in your space.

Before you begin searching for your garden plants, here are some questions you might want to do a quick research on:

  • What plants do you want to grow? Are they compatible with the area you are planting them in?
  • What are the plants’ requirements for soil, water, weather and sunlight?
  • What homemade or organic pest control options will you need?

Researching all of these can seem overwhelming for you at first. But once you get hooked on gardening and consider it as your favorite hobby, you’ll surely get interested in knowing all these topics!

Tiny living can also inspire you to lessen your expenses. A money-saving idea could be growing your own fresh produce! It can be something you love to do and something that saves up on your expenses at the same time!

To start, you must identify where your mini garden will be growing. It can be on your rooftop, balcony or just outside your home if your space allows. Some herbs and veggies can also grow in used cans or vintage glass jars.

You can line them up on your windowsill so they can easily absorb sunlight and add a refreshing vibe to your home!

Once you are done, choose which herbs or vegetables can grow easily and quickly. Then finally, you’re ready to shop for supplies.
