Plants and flowers

Decorative plants and flowers make any house feel like home

Incorporating natural elements like plants and flowers throughout your space helps it feel cozier, relaxed and welcoming. These elements are important in any home, but can be especially desirable in apartments and smaller houses where space and natural light can be limited, and putting your personal stamp on every space may not be possible.

If you’re a renter, you may have restrictions against painting walls, hanging pictures, mounting shelves or televisions and more. To make your space feel more like your own, choosing home decor elements that reflect your personality, style and goals for the space goes a long way. This can include incorporating decorative accessories alongside vases, candles, lamps and—of course— plants and flowers! 

Whether you decide to move to a new location or simply want to switch up the location of your decorative plants in your existing space, our easily portable plant pots make it possible.

Ensure your plants have adequate sunlight

Plants need sunlight—however, not all of them need the same amount. It helps to consider the environment from which the plant has originated. Plants that thrive in desert climates will typically need a lot of direct sunlight, while some plants that thrive in dense forest environments may only need a few daily hours of partial sunlight to survive.

Review the available information for the live plants you like best to ensure they’re suited to your climate and the specific conditions in which they’ll be kept. If you know your apartment or home doesn’t have a window that will provide enough light, consider artificial plants to achieve a similar effect.

What are the best flowers and plants for homes?

There’s no such thing as the best indoor plant—plenty of plants can thrive in your house or outdoor space, so it comes down to exploring your personal preference. If you want a low maintenance plant, succulents are a good choice as they rarely need watering. A lack of direct sunlight in your home could call for a plant like the dragon tree. For decorative purposes, you may consider impressive climbing vines, while a fruit tree will produce edible summer treats.

There’s a hugely diverse range of indoor plants and flowers that you can bring into your home. Discover your personal taste when it comes to colors, fragrances and levels of maintenance required.

An additional factor to consider is how safe a plant is around pets. For some pets, ingesting the leaves or flowers of certain house plants will make them very sick, so it’s worth double checking that your preferred plants won’t cause harm to any curious pups or cats sharing your home.
