Simple Indoor Garden Projects and Kits for Adults

Two green thumbs way up! You don’t need a huge backyard, a front yard, a balcony or a terrace to enjoy the spoils of gardening. Even if you’re cooped up in a small apartment in the big city, you can still surround yourself with lush greenery that you’ve grown from scratch. All you really need is a well-lit window sill, some seeds and pots to watch them flourish in.

Get ready to spice up your life! This kit includes four types of hot pepper seeds—habanero, jalapeno, cayenne and Anaheim, as well as harvesting scissors, a wooden planter with a gift tray, bamboo plant markers and four fabric grow bags with holes for drainage. Once the seeds sprout they can continue to grow indoors or easily be transferred to an outdoor garden.

If you crave the beauty of plants and flowers but have a hard time remembering to water them, hardy succulents and cacti are for you. This kit comes with four kinds of seeds, biodegradable pots, starting seed pellets and plant labels. All these plants need is lots of sunshine and a weekly watering.

Bonsais are popular because you don’t need to have mastered the art of gardening to grow them successfully. This kit comes with all the tools needed to raise four trees from the soil up: four biodegradable growing pots, four expanding-soil discs, four bamboo plant markers, and one bonsai clipper. If garden variety isn’t the spice of your life, this one’s for you.
