Hi,

I have lived in ground floor apartments - in England we call them flats - and I've found that cactus and succulents survive well if you can give them a sunny windowsill to stand on. Also they don't need much looking after (though mine get fed with tomato fertiliser every other week) and watered the week between. They are the first houseplants I have any luck with.

If you want to grow plants indoors you cannot have net curtains since they block/filter the part of sunlight that the plants need to survive.

Going away on Wednesday 30th so will only be able to use a computer net cafe to access any mails. Will report progress as time goes on...
