Sink With a View

Take your kitchen windowsill to the next level with a hydroponic planter for growing fresh vegetables and herbs. Instead of soil, hydroponic gardens use nutrient-rich solutions in a water solvent, making them a smart choice for indoor plantings. The hexagon-tiled garden allows the homeowners to grow leafy greens, such as bibb lettuce and red-leaf lettuce, and herbs, like basil, mint and tarragon, right in their kitchen.

Balancing Act

Look for unexpected places to create indoor gardens, such as planters built into room dividers or stair railings. Opt for plants that don't require a lot of tender love and care in hard-to-reach areas to keep your to-do list manageable. Since plants release a lot of the water they take in, they add humidity back into your home so that they air doesn't get too dry.

Natural Sculpture

Sparse, mod furnishings and a blank white wall counter the intensity of this lush wall garden. A collection of ferns and leafy plants fill the wall with more dimension than a flat piece of art and ushers in organic texture.
