A long office window bank

How can several windows carry a varied plant display?

6 individually potted plants. Select any photograph to open that plant's existing guide.

Placement and growing conditions

Why this group works here.

Use a sequence of separate pots with gaps between their crowns. Keep the lighter trailing plant on a secure ledge and prevent any container from obstructing window handles. Inspect afternoon heat and cold winter glass before deciding the final distances from the windows.

The message behind the grouping

Meaning, with a little thought.

The sequence can represent variety within one team: fine, broad, divided, and trailing foliage share a location without being made identical.

Weeping Fig
In this design: continuity and belonging.
A light canopy can anchor a stable bright corner rather than a site moved for each event.
Dwarf Umbrella Tree
In this design: connection and shared effort.
Its radiating leaflets make a rounded counterpoint to upright furniture and linear shelves.
Geranium Leaf Aralia
In this design: variety within a group.
Its divided foliage provides contrast while the container remains accessible for steady individual care.
Song of India Dracaena
In this design: optimism and lively detail.
Use the narrow patterned leaves as a smaller accent beside broader, simpler foliage.
Dwarf Peace Lily
In this design: a considerate welcome.
White spathes make a light accent against green foliage; check its own mix rather than sharing a watering schedule.
Goldfish Plant
In this design: playfulness and curiosity.
A short trailing outline brings movement at shelf level while remaining clear of work surfaces.
