Planting Indoors

Across much of the country, the time for enjoying outdoor plants has come to an end.  You can still enjoy the color and beauty of plants and flowers indoors, there are so many varieties to choose from that are perfectly content inside.  They can actually help you chase away the winter blues now that there is less daylight.  Choose the right plant for the lighting and temperature situation in your home. At Alice's Outdoor Emporium, we've gotten in some very attractive planting pots to help you display your greenery.

The color of the sea, the Glazed Blue Garden Pot Trio is a lovely set of three different sized ceramic pots; small, medium and large.  They each share an elegant raised scallop design around the top that makes them very pretty.  The rims are accented with a rosy glow and the interiors are a soft cream color.  Use them to make a creative grouping, or, spread them throughout your home.  Each pot has a drain hole to help keep plants healthy.

Ideal for little flowers, herbs and greenery, the Flower Print Planters are very bright and cheery.  Made from tin, this sweet trio of yellow planters each have a different flower botannical painted on them for a sophisticated country look.  They are the perfect size to accent a garden window, kitchen countertop or even a bathroom.  They measure 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" x 5" high each.

Just darned pretty, the Glazed Green Garden Pot Trio has a gorgeous irridescent soft green glaze.  You receive one of each size; small, medium and large.  Each ceramic pot is decorated with a beautiful raised rose and vine pattern.  They each have a drain hole in the bottom to promote plant health.  Come visit our website for a selection of planters, pots and stands to help you create the indoor garden you've always wanted.
