Pots, Boxes and Terrariums

There are, of course, infinite variations and combina­tions that you can employ in setting up your indoor gar­den, but basically there are three main approaches to the arrangement of house plants:

Individual pots which can be set up and moved about at will.

A tray or box arrangement (almost always in a window)  in which a number of different plants are
grown together.

Terrariums (also known as Wardian cases) of which only the smallest or bottle variety are truly mobile.

For the beginner, obviously the easiest arrangement, individual pots, is the best.

Spring bursts forth, with daffodils across the state, magnolias in full bloom and the sweet smell of blossoms.
