Orange Tree

A bite sized version of the orange tree, consider it an orange bonsai. Growing fruit trees indoors can be tricky for some, click the link above for a great article by Better Homes and Gardens. TIP: If you grow an orange tree inside, you will have to “hand pollinate” for fruit.

Ixora

Keep the soil of this beauty evenly moist. Be careful not to overwater, as this can cause root rot. Don’t be afraid to trim these guys back should they get too long, an Ixora is surprisingly tolerant.

Geranium

If you ever get your hands on the geranium oil, the scent is unlike any other, its a beautiful thing. Keep your Geranium plant in a bright, southern facing window. The plant will wilt and die if it doesn’t receive bright amounts of sunlight.
