Bringing different plants into your home is a great way to give a fresher feel and improve the aesthetics of your indoor space. As well as looking pretty, plants are also known to make us feel at ease and relieve anxiety, which is why so many people have them on display.
Whether you’re looking for something high maintenance or a plant that’s easy to look after, here are some luscious indoor plants to brighten up any room in your home.
Money Tree
Although this tree won’t actually grow money, according to the Feng Shui belief system, it can bring good luck and positive vibrations to the person that owns it. It’s also believed that it can reduce stress and help improve sleep.
Money trees are native to South America, so it’s also the perfect plant for you if you want to give your home a tropical feel.
Spider Plant
Chlorophytum – also known as a spider plant is a fast-growing plant that’s easy to look after. It requires weekly watering and, as long as you put it in a well-lit spot, it grows into a beautiful house plant without loads of effort.
There are several varieties of spider plants to choose from, like Viariegatum, Vittatum, or Lemon – just pick your favorite and put it in a hanging container or pot.
Aloe Vera
Aloe Vera is known for its health benefits and topical healing properties. But it’s also a very popular house plant that looks great on your bedside table or desk.
These plants prefer indirect sunlight, making them a fantastic choice for inside. They just need to be watered every one to two weeks to grow their famous green, fleshy leaves.
Dracaena Gold Star
If you’re looking for a large indoor plant that’s not hugely demanding to maintain, a Dracaena Gold Star is the right choice for you. It can easily adapt to different lights and environments.
Its narrow shape also makes it a versatile choice. Even if you live in a small house or apartment, it won’t take up loads of room and can be kept in tight corners without taking up living space.
Snake Plant
A Sansevieria, which is more commonly known as a snake plant, is another awesome choice, especially for anyone that doesn’t have much experience looking after plants.
Not only does it look appealing, but it’s also incredibly low-maintenance. Snake plants are well known for surviving in tough conditions, so they don’t take much upkeep.
Peace Lily
Another indoor plant to consider is a Peace Lily. This is a gorgeous plant that can brighten up any living space and give it a whole new look.
This plant grows lilies, and it’s one of the best at removing unwanted toxins – like ammonia, benzene, formaldehyde, and trichloroethylene – from the air while producing oxygen.
