My name is Janet Brandon and I created this site to share my passion for nurturing beautiful, vibrant indoor gardens. Whether you’re looking to grow fresh herbs in your kitchen, spruce up your home with easy-care houseplants, or take on a more advanced project like aquaponics or hydroponics, Green Fingers has you covered.
Over the past decade, I’ve experimented with different indoor gardening methods and collected tips from other plant lovers near and far. On this site, you’ll find all the information you need to get started with indoor gardening, from plant care guides to equipment recommendations to ideas for utilizing small spaces. You don’t need a big backyard to enjoy the relaxing and rewarding experience of growing your own plants.
While indoor gardening may seem intimidating at first, my goal is to break it down into simple, actionable steps that anyone can tackle. Through my own trials and errors, I’ve learned what works best in different conditions. I’m here as your indoor gardening buddy to help you avoid common pitfalls and have success bringing the outdoors in.
Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced gardener looking to broaden your skills, I hope Green Fingers becomes your go-to resource for all things indoor plants and gardening.
