The lack of space is a major obstacle for anyone who likes to grow plants and only have a small balcony and a window. Yet many species can adapt well to growing in pots not too big and if we have different species will give us a long flowering time. One trick is to choose small or dwarf varieties of our favorite species. Right now we are blooming Lilies and Gladiolus but some were once Narcissus, Freesia, Sparaxis and even Allium. A good combination of bulbs can make us enjoy a sustained period of time bloom throughout the spring and summer. The big problem with which we are to grow in small pots is a great need for our plants need watering in summer. But otherwise our plants just need care.
