With the coronavirus limiting our outdoor activities, some have turned to planting and gardening to bring more nature into their lives. For those in urban areas, the prospect of cultivating an outdoor garden, in a backyard or balcony, is slim to none.

There are plenty of ways to bring more greenery in your home, and we've rounded up a few online to help you grow indoor plants (and keep them alive)!

Best Indoor Gardening Tools:

If you want to grow your own vegetables and herbs but lack an outdoor space, here's a quick solution: The Smart Garden 3 by Click & Grow. While a bit pricey, it automatically waters and shines light on your herbs. Take it a step further: Sign up for Click & Grow subscription service.

More Options:

• The TORCHSTAR LED Light Kit for a more economical option
• Webby Winner Epicurious' tips on how to maintain a thriving kitchen herb garden

• We also love The Sill. It sells plants and accessories, offers inspiration, and hosts online workshops. Attend their workshop "Monstera Deliciosa 101" next Wed., 7/22.
• Listen to Bloom and Grow Radio, a podcast made by and for indoor plant people.
• Follow Black plant influencers. As the fight against racial injustice continues, one way you can help is by supporting black content creators. Here are few: @unknownsucculents, @theghettogreenhouse, @botanicalblackgirl
