What fruits can I grow on my bedroom windowsill?

I have been looking at plants such as kumquats. I live in England (considering climate) and I think my window faces north east to north north east (Google Earth)

Kumquats can make good house plants but will need at least half a day of direct sunlight. Also turn the pot occasionally so that it gets an even distribution of light all round or else it will grow in one direction. Mist it occasionally and give it a citrus feed during the growing season.


You could try growing cape gooseberry (physalis peruviana) but its only an annual so will have to be discarded after it has fruited.
Reply:How about Mini Citrus? Meyer Lemons are quite hardy and do well indoors in a sunny place.

Reply:I do not think you have enough sun. Fruits and vegetables need more of a southerly facing exposure to produce.....
Reply:Windowsills are usually too narrow to hold plants that need some room to breathe. A table in front of the window could work if you have enough space for it. Your window faces away from the sun and this could be a problem. I'd stay with an indoor foliage plant like sanseveria (a.k.a. snake plant/mother-in-law's tongue) which can exist in lower light and with a very upright leaf. You can even get a bird's nest variety.


Kumquat plants, although smaller than other citrus, still require much more space and they need summer temps of 25-38C. They may be enticing, but, they surely spell DISAPPOINTMENT if you want to grow them indoors.
