FAQs for buying Window Plants in India

What type of Window Plants should I buy?


The type of plants to buy for a window depends upon the space and light that your window provides. Your overall plant choices will vary significantly in case you have a windowsill inside the room versus a window grill protruding outwards. Read on to understand what factors you must consider while shopping for window plants.

Let us start with the size of plant you can buy for your window. In case you are looking for plants to be kept on a windowsill within the room, then opt for small to medium-sized plants, from about 6 inches to 2 feet tall plants. You have a wide range of plants that you can choose from, from succulents to Prayer Plant. In case you have a window grill and you are searching for best plants to be kept in the grill, you can opt for medium to large plants, from 1 feet to 5 feet tall plants. Also, use the grill to hang a few plants, the size of such pots could be 5 to 6 inches.

The next thing to consider is the light requirements of plants for windows. If your window receives bright indirect light (no direct sunlight), then you can opt for any of the indoor plants for your window. In case the window receives 2 to 3 hours of direct morning sunlight, you can add many flowering plants to your window. Also, most of the indoor plants do well in morning sunlight. A great addition can be a variety of Rubber Plant. However, in case your window receives more than 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight, shift your focus to outdoor plants. There are hundreds of varieties of outdoor plants for windows, like Crotons and Palms. Also, full sunlight is great for flowering plants like roses, hibiscus and vinca.

Finally, the most important factor that should influence your choice is the purpose of buying window plants. If you are looking to add color to the window, use different flowering plants and plants that give colored foliage (like Wandering Jew and Purple Shamrock). If you want a fully green window, add more green foliage plants, like Pothos and Crotons. In case you are looking to brighten up the room by adding plants on a windowsill, check our best plants for windowsill below.

Which are the best plants for windows?


Windows provide a great space for adding plants to your home. Not only do these plants add to the décor but also make the air more breathable by removing toxins like Benzene, Trichloroethylene, Xylene, Formaldehyde, and Toluene from indoor air.

My window gets more than 6 hours of sunlight. Which window plants should I look at?


While all plants need sunlight to produce their food, many indoor plants do not like full direct sunlight as it burns their leaves. So if your window receives more than 6 hours of direct sunlight, then look for outdoor plants for windows.

Go for flowering plants like Hibiscus, Chinese Fringe Bush, Adenium, Jasmine, Rose, and Vinca to add flowers to your window. These plants love to grow in full sun. If you have more space, buy large plants like Rubber Plant, Dragon Tree, and Areca Palm. For creating a dense cover, use Money Plant or Pothos.

I have a window grill. How can I design it to make it look beautiful?


Window grills provide amazing space to add plants to a home. If you are looking to buy window plants, think about the design that you want your window to have. Do you wish to have more flowers or more greens? Large leaves or small leaves? Tall plants or small plants? Green leaves or colored leaves? Full window coverage or partial coverage? Let us explore some designs recommended by our plant stylist.

Design 1: Window Grill Full Coverage: Designing your window with the best plants for windows? If you are looking for full coverage, you should add different types of plants including large, medium, and small plants and hanging plants. The first step in designing the window grill is to add foliage plants. Add multiple hanging Pothos at the middle of the grill and multiple Wandering Jew or Turtle vines hanging from the ceiling of the window grill. Once the foliage cover is added, add some large plants at the sides of the grill. Choose a Rubber Plant, Ti Plant, Dieffenbachia, or Dragon tree based on the light that the window receives. Now that the stage is set for smaller plants, add them either on hanging shelves from the grill or on the bottom of the window grill. Add plants like Aglaonema, Calathea, Snake plant, Peperomia, Caladium, and Syngonium.

Design 2: Window Grill Partial Coverage: To have only partial coverage on the window grill, use small to medium window plants. You can still have one large plant on either side of the grill to give a border to your window grill. Use a non-intrusive plant like Rubber Plant for the border. For the center of the grill, add window plants like Snake Plant, Money Plant, Broken-leaf Philodendron, Peperomia, Aglaonema, and Philodendron Ceylon.

Design 1: Window Grill Flowering Plants: If you want to create a flower bed on your window grill, look for plants that do well in Indian Climate. Also, check the light requirements before buying the plants. You can choose a different set of plants for every season to keep a flower bed that blooms all year round. Add a few perennial plants like Hibiscus, Rose, Adenium, Vinca, and Jasmine. For summers, add Phlox and Zinnia. For winters, add Aster, and Geranium. Dahlia, Salvia, and Gazania.
