By my window

The flower by my window is of green colour.

Is the sentence correct please?

Thanks.

"By my window" means "next to my window". You might want "in my window", which means that it is situated within the outline of the window and can be seen through it. There is also "on my windowsill", which is often better because it is more specific.

Two words are superfluous and have been struck through.
