If you don't have a balcony, try this. In a area of your apartment that gets some daylight, lay down some bricks in a half circle against a wall, 2 to 3 bricks high. Lay down plastic sheeting to protect the floor from moisture, curving the sides up behind and over the bricks so water won't leak out. Place another layer of bricks on the plastic to hold it in place and hide the plastic. Then arrange a variety of houseplants inside the bricks. Place some of the pots on some kind of risers to have different heights to your garden. You may even place a thin layer of gravel on the plastic under the pots so the pots don't sit in water. Good luck.

It depends on how big you can get containers, and how much sun your plants would get if you want to grow food to eat. Then things such as houseplants you can do. Try purple-cane. It is easy to manage. A lot of foliage plants (usually leafy plants), don't need a lot of light. Look around in your locale gardening store. Some ferns require shade. For window boxes, try petunias or impatients. There is also a shade mix at Wal-Mart that might work. Growing Herbs works good in a window, (some gardening places sale small herbs gardens like a five pot stand). Seriously walk around in gardening stores and you will get a lot of ideas.

Buy nice pots and plant everything you like in it (basically). You have to take them to the sun near the windows or outside of you door once in a while. Enjoy!

Container garden works great....I have tomatos, peppers, onions, and squash growing in containers on my patio...is working great....tomatos are huge and peppers are real hot!!!! Onions are small, but very good and squash aren't quite to maturity...but doing real well....you will need wire supports for the tomatos and squash....
