| Step ladder Plant Stand |
My biggest challenge with window sill garden was the limited space and it was a risk to purchase garden stands which come for more than a few thousand rupees depending upon of course the size you take.
The choice is Amazing! creative garden stands, planters, plant stands with different patterns, arrangements, you just have to consider what space is available for you. It is a good suggestion to get the stand repainted, but have not done this as it is rainy season and oil paint will not dry fast.

The challenge was as we measured the available space in our window before going in to purchase a specific steps garden plant metal stand. Check the metal quality, but as it will be exposed to daily watering, and the plant stand needs to be of thick metal to bear the load of heavy plant containers.

With so many plants from our previous terrace garden, this time seriously minimized and assembled some together. Facing north, we have limited indirect sunlight coming so it is a challenge to grow flowering plants in our window sill garden.

| Cleaning the window sill garden before installing the garden plant stand |
the limited window sill space did not give much options but to remove all garden containers inside our living room , to clean ti and then put the stand.
The main purpose I chose to have a plants stand was to give containers breathing space. The space below is free fro air circulation and can be cleaned now as compared to earlier when all plant pots were placed on the window floor.
The circular one is more of an ornamental plant stand, light weight so it will not take heavy plant containers. And also the rings attached are of a particular size so you have to repot again, unless of course if you have those sized growing pots. As i mentioned it was a decision of heart and not brain, so I fitted some pots in circular plant stand.
The circular plant stand is more suited for corner or entry way garden and maybe if this works out I may install it there. Also good as a corner plant arrangement for living room spaces to add fresh greenery into modern decor.
With my artists studio clearing, organizing, letting go of many paintings, listing my art, life is seemingly beautiful and feels lighter now. My garden has fresh vibes and the aura of peace and welcoming energy as compared to earlier with overflowing packed up containers.
There were fully packed containers in our window garden and also small plant containers above each large pot. reduced them.
The cycle kept moving since years, I had garden containers so I bought plants and then... if the containers broke or got damaged the plants were healthy so again I purchased new garden pots. Of course the environmental conditions were extreme with direct sunlight for most part of the day in our terrace garden.
Now there is limited sunlight but have come to terms with the limitations and so also the choice of plants has been made considering this and they look happy.
