When you think of farming or gardening for food, you think of the outdoors. After all, if you want to squeeze a fresh orange or lemon in the morning, you need a certain amount of outdoor space for those trees.
5 Fruit Trees That Are TOO EASY TO GROW IN THE HOME MOTHER GARDEN
Except sometimes you don’t. In addition to the houseplants you know (and the more unusual ones, like wasabi, that you probably don’t), many fruit trees also grow well indoors. This means you can combine the decorative beauty of houseplants with the practical advantage of being able to grab a delicious, healthy snack wherever you are.
There are two things to keep in mind if this sounds like your next indoor gardening project: First, in almost all cases, you should look for the “dwarf” varieties of the fruit plants you want, since they don’t require the space that their full-grown cousins do. Second, purchasing a mature tree and transplanting it into your home will always increase your chances of actually getting viable fruit. Planting from seed can work, but it will usually take longer and produce less.
That being said, here are the best choices when it comes to growing fruit trees indoors. However, keep in mind that, like all plants, some varieties can be toxic to your pets. So keep that in mind before you get started.
