Not only do you get to make a new friend with a plant, you can use the plants you grow to make your dishes better than you ever imagined. Make sure your herbs get plenty of sun, or artificial light if the windows are too cold. The best place to put your plant is next to a south-facing window, due to the sun\u2019s trajectory. Make sure that your new little buddy has good drainage, for the sake of both the plant and your countertop.<\/p>\n<h2>Indoor Gardening: Flowers<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24630\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24630\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarmoving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/5986807509_57c500f6f9_o.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-24630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.northstarmoving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/5986807509_57c500f6f9_o-300x189.jpg\" alt=\"Phalaenopsis equestris by blumenbiene (CC BY 2.0)\" width=\"300\" height=\"189\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24630\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"oembed-caption\"><a title=\"Phalaenopsis equestris\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/blumenbiene\/5986807509\/\">Phalaenopsis equestris<\/a> by <a title=\"Flickr user blumenbiene\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/blumenbiene\/\">blumenbiene<\/a> (<a title=\"Creative Commons Attribution License\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/\" rel=\"license\">CC BY 2.0<\/a>)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>There are lots of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhg.com\/gardening\/houseplants\/projects\/blooming-houseplants\/\" target=\"_blank\">cute little flowers<\/a> that you can grow to perfect that indoor gardening look. These flowers are not only beautiful, they will also never wilt on you if you take proper care of them. A few suggestions for small potted flowers are <a href=\"http:\/\/www.garden.org\/plantguide\/?q=show&amp;id=2133\" target=\"_blank\">Hibiscus<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.optimara.com\/africanvioletcare1.html\" target=\"_blank\">African violets<\/a>. My personal favorite is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gardeningknowhow.com\/ornamental\/flowers\/jasmine\/growing-jasmine-indoors.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Jasmine<\/a>, which will fill your home with a fresh floral fragrance, free of artificial scents or deodorants. These flowers thrive on room temperature, so make sure to keep your home above 65 degrees Fahrenheit during the winter.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Indoor Gardening: Sprouts<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24631\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24631\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarmoving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/4892202543_6507c46ec0_o.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-24631\" src=\"https:\/\/www.northstarmoving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/4892202543_6507c46ec0_o-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"August 14th, 2010 by kellyhogaboom (CC BY-SA 2.0)\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24631\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"oembed-caption\"><a title=\"August 14th, 2010\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kellyhogaboom\/4892202543\/\">August 14th, 2010<\/a> by <a title=\"Flickr user kellyhogaboom\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kellyhogaboom\/\">kellyhogaboom<\/a> (<a title=\"Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/\" rel=\"license\">CC BY-SA 2.0<\/a>)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Growing sprouts isn\u2019t just for <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chia_Pet\" target=\"_blank\">Chia pets<\/a>. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanorganicgardener.com\/2012\/02\/how-to-grow-your-own-sprouts-indoors\/\" target=\"_blank\">Grow your own food<\/a> through indoor gardening in the easiest way possible.
