In Switzerland, we were growing some plants on our balcony -- especially cilantro and mint. In this apartment, we didn't have any outdoor space, so we switched to growing plants inside. We started off with these three cactuses that we got with Olga at Terrain (in Westport). We replanted them into these cute ceramic containers and watered them every week or so.
In the spring, Chase planted some sunflowers, some Zinnia (seeds leftover from the Migros promotion last year), and a few others. The sunflowers and Zinnia took off and took over! We had to replant them quite a few times. Chase enjoyed watering these plants through the spring, summer, and fall, and they provided a green corner to our living room.
Update: we moved the cactuses to our new house where they now sit by the kitchen sink that gets a lot of sun. They have definitely grown a lot since first being transferred to these ceramic containers!
