BRING GREEN INDOORS
Indoor plants are a decorative addition indoors , breathing colour , life and scent into your living spaces . Houseplants are also known to add oxygen and purify the air space , contributing to a healthier home . Choose plants that suit the environment they are in . Whether it ’ s your living space , kitchen or bathroom there is no limit to the area of your home you can green up .
The trick for indoor plants is to include easy to care for options that will cope well in the room they are placed , and also add style where you want it . Below are some fool proof options to indoor plant success .
Succulents are at the top of the list when it comes to low maintenance and being easy to grow . They are available in a selection of colours including greens , purples , and blues . Fitting for any room indoors , plant them up in terracotta pots , recycled tin cans or little wooden planter boxes . A little pot of succulents on your desk at work is also a refreshing touch !
For your living space … Known for their striking white flowers and green foliage , peace lilies are a popular easy to grow option . Monstera deliciosa and fiddle leaf fig are also great options that will prosper in your living space and add a nice touch of green to a white room .
For a modern statement piece try a palm or snake plant . Or if you are looking for a cascading greenery option don ’ t look past ivy . Its flowing foliage stands out draping down off a shelf or table .
For your bedroom … Bring green to your bedroom with pothos , one of the easiest to grow indoor plants as it copes with low light and irregular watering . With their glossy green leaves and upright habit a peace lily works well in the bedroom on a table or near a window , or make a statement with a fiddle leaf fig in a corner of the room .
For the bathroom … Bathrooms are known for their low light and high humidity . Ferns such as maidenhair , asparagus or Boston will thrive in this space and therefore make the perfect plant
partner for your bathroom . Other great options for the bathroom include string of pearls , moth orchids , and peace lillies .
For the kitchen … Spider plants are suitable for any area of the kitchen to purify the air , removing odours and fumes . As a smaller plant option , they work well in a pot on the countertop . For a lush looking plant that will tolerate little care and the varying conditions in a kitchen , try a cast iron plant .
Easy to care for and happy in low light areas , a rubber tree is a tough plant option for the kitchen that is great at removing toxins from the air . Or if you ’ re looking for an edible option – herbs are a kitchen must-have for a flavour punch at your fingertips !
