This year I want to try growing flowers from seeds.
I'm not sure what kind of flowers. See, my apartment has a Juliet balcony facing west; it's probably just deep enough to put one of those little window potters out on. I also have two west-facing windows with very deep sills that could definitely hold them. The west-facing windows and balcony of course get nine billion tons of blazing sunlight each afternoon in the spring and summer. I also have two north-facing windows which naturally don't get any direct sunlight. The garden lady at Lowe's told me a couple springs ago about some species that like what she called "that dim northern light."
