Article by Regie Elester
Everybody wants a little of nature inside their homes. Maybe that is the reason why we put animal decors in our living rooms, air conditioning in the all over, water feature beside the door and of course, the herbs near the kitchen sink, fruits on the dining, flowers in every all over the house and plants at every nook and corner.
But creating a garden setting would demand widen, open spaces and patches of land, water and sunlight. In some modern homes, a few have somehow made an almost-garden effect in their homes. They are able to do this because they have a wide square footage in their land area; they also started it right from the blueprint of a house. It is a different case with apartments though; having an apartment garden can be quite a challenge because of the space and apartment building construction limitations.
However, there are some apartments that have patios, balconies or terraces where you can make use of as your mini garden. All you need are pots, bins or even tin cans to have a container garden. Without a patch of land to plant your garden, container gardening is a good alternative as you can move it anywhere, under the sun and near your kitchen sink or even on top of your table. It is important to remember that these container plants must have a drainage holes. If you bought some fancy breakable container and do not want to put holes in them, then you can still make use of it by putting a smaller container with holes in it. You will just need to clean it every so often so that it will be free from any insects.
