Rules for windowsill gardens
Bathroom and kitchen windowsills often
look like store shelves or a dumping site
for empty bottles and the past few years'
unwanted gifts – particularly unattractive
from outside! Clear the clutter, and then
restyle your windowsill.
Choose a style for your windowsill: either
Victoria, Mexican, French, oriental or any
that suits your home décor theme. Or mix
styles – but if you stick to a single container
colour, such as red.
Use plants that enjoy similar growing
conditions. Sun lovers will work well on
windowsills that face north, east, or west,
while south-facing windowsills are ideal for
shade-loving plants.
