I'm a relatively newcomer to gardening.. and looking for some
ideas/thoughts for someone who has no garden.. just 2 very large south
facing windows.

Over the last couple of years, I've grown in pots: various herbs,
tomato's, chillies and even had a go at some salad leaves/radishes
with mix success. As you may well already guessed.. I like food and
cooking and hence prefer to grow something that is edible!

Onto the question... in uk.food+drink.misc there was a part-thread
about peaches (and patio variaties).. which got me thinking (ok
hoping).. could these grow indoors? If not what would be a good choice
fruit for growing indoors in a pot?

Thanks for any ideas and thoughts would really be appreciated.

Just a quick follow up.. to say thanks for the advice/ideas.

Today I bought (from Reads Nursery).. not a peach tree but..

- A Kaffir Lime (Citrus Hystrix)
The one to grow for authentic Thai style flavouring. 3yr bushy plants

- A Vine (Black Hamburgh)
Universally known. A reliable mid-season swee****er grape producing
large bunches. Excellent for pots.

- A Fig (Osbournes Prolific)
(Archipel) Large pear shaped fruit. Brown skin with purple tinge when
ripe. Rich and sweet golden flesh, very productive. Greenhouse or pot.
