If you live in a small apartment or simply want to add a touch of greenery without taking up too much space, the IKEA ÅKERBÄR greenhouse is a clever solution. With its compact size and stylish design, it's ideal for herbs, small plants, and decorative flowers. We photographed ÅKERBÄR during our visits to IKEA stores, so you can see exactly how it looks in real life.
Compact design: Perfect for windowsills, shelves, desks, or small balconies.
Affordable: A budget-friendly entry point into indoor gardening.
Protection: Keeps plants safe from dust, pets, or sudden temperature changes.
Stylish touch: Available in different colors, ÅKERBÄR adds charm and design value to your home.
The ÅKERBÄR greenhouse isn't designed for large-scale gardening, but it's perfect for:
Herbs: Basil, mint, parsley, oregano.
Microgreens: Quick-growing greens like arugula, cress, or spinach.
Small flowers: Decorative plants that benefit from a sheltered environment.
Seedlings: Start young plants before moving them outside.
One of the strengths of ÅKERBÄR is that it doubles as a decorative element:
Combine with woven baskets or terracotta pots for a rustic look.
Pair with modern lamps and shelves for a sleek, minimal style.
Use it as a centerpiece on a desk or console table – both functional and beautiful.
Place the greenhouse in a bright spot, close to a window.
Open the lid occasionally to let air circulate and prevent condensation.
Use self-watering pots to keep the soil evenly moist.
During winter, add a small grow light if needed.
The IKEA ÅKERBÄR greenhouse is a brilliant choice for anyone with limited space who still wants fresh herbs or a decorative green touch indoors. It's small, stylish, and practical – a mini greenhouse that proves you don't need a garden to enjoy plants at home.
