Types of floor plants available at IKEA

We offer a versatile range of floor plants designed to suit different homes, styles and care preferences. Our goal is to make it simple for you to choose greenery that fits seamlessly into your everyday life.

1. Leafy statement plants

Plants like fiddle leaf figs and monsteras add bold character and visual impact. They’re perfect for creating a focal point in your living room or filling empty corners with life.

2. Low-maintenance plants

Snake plants, ZZ plants and dracaenas are ideal if you prefer something easy to care for. These varieties thrive with minimal attention, making them perfect for busy households.

3. Soft and airy plants

Palms and ferns bring a light, relaxed feel into your home. Their flowing leaves add movement and softness, especially in open or neutral spaces.

4. Compact and vertical growers

For smaller homes, we offer plants that grow upward rather than outward. These help you maximise greenery without taking up too much floor space.

Choosing the right floor plants: size, light & placement guide

Finding the right floor plant isn’t just about looks; it’s about how it fits into your daily life. At IKEA, we design our range to help you make confident, practical choices.

1. Size matters

Large floor plants can anchor a room, making them perfect for empty corners or beside sofas. Medium-sized plants work well near windows or as part of a grouped display. If your space is compact, slimmer plants or vertical growers help you add greenery without crowding.

2. Light conditions

We always recommend choosing plants based on the natural light in your home. Bright spaces near windows are ideal for sun-loving varieties, while shaded corners are better suited to low-light plants like snake plants or ZZ plants. Our product information is designed to guide you clearly, so you don’t have to guess.

3. Placement tips

Think of plants as part of your furniture layout. Place them where they complement your everyday movement, next to a reading chair, near an entryway, or beside a TV unit. We design our floor plants and pots to blend seamlessly into your home, making styling effortless and functional.

Pot sizes and plant varieties in IKEA floor plants

At IKEA, we don’t just focus on plants; we look at the complete solution. That’s why our floor plants come in thoughtfully selected pots and containers that combine style, durability and affordability.

1. Pot sizes for every plant stage

Our floor plants are available to fit a range of pot sizes, from compact bases for smaller plants to larger containers that support fuller growth. This makes it easier for you to choose plants that suit your space today while allowing room to grow.

2. Plant varieties for every lifestyle

From hardy, low-maintenance plants to decorative foliage varieties, our range is curated to suit real homes. We prioritise plants that are resilient, adaptable and easy to care for, because we know your time is valuable.

Care, watering and maintenance tips for IKEA floor plants

We believe plant care should feel simple, not stressful. That’s why we focus on offering plants that are easy to maintain, along with guidance that fits into your routine.

1. Watering made easy

Most floor plants don’t need daily watering. Overwatering is often more harmful than underwatering, so we recommend checking the soil before adding water. If the top layer feels dry, it’s time to water.

2. Understanding your plant’s needs

Each plant has its own rhythm. Some thrive in bright light, while others prefer shade. At IKEA, we provide clear care instructions so you can give your plants exactly what they need, no guesswork involved.

3. Low-maintenance care tips

Dusting leaves occasionally helps plants absorb light better. Rotating your plant ensures even growth, and trimming dead leaves keeps it looking fresh. Our goal is to make plant care feel like a small, rewarding part of your day, not a chore.

Styling ideas with floor plants for living rooms, corners & entryways

Floor plants are one of the easiest ways to transform a space, and we design our collection to help you do it effortlessly.

1. Living room styling

Place a tall plant next to your sofa or TV unit to add height and balance. Pair it with a neutral pot for a calm, cohesive look, or choose a bold design to make a statement. We love combining plants with soft textiles and natural materials for a warm, inviting feel.

2. Corner transformations

Empty corners often go unnoticed, but they’re perfect for floor plants. A single tall plant can instantly bring life to the space. For a layered look, group two or three plants of different heights to create depth.

3. Entryway impressions

Your entryway sets the tone for your home. Adding a floor plant near the door or console table creates a welcoming, fresh atmosphere. We design our plants and pots to be lightweight and easy to move, so you can refresh your layout whenever you like.
