Ferns: These low maintenance plants come in an array of varieties. Their fluffy and airy fronds add dimension to any space . They require medium to low indirect sunlight and you only need to water these beauties weekly keeping their soil moist. Hang them from the ceiling or keep them in a planter, the option is yours.

Dwarf Meyer Lemon Fruit Tree: During these long winter days, this citrus tree will boost your mood with it’s potent smell and pop of color. They need as much sunlight as you can give it. The best place being directly in front of a window. Move the tree outdoors once the warm weather hits. These plants are a little more high maintenance and require hand pollination and pruning for the fruit to actually grow, but are well worth the hard work.
