FAUX PLANTS
If you love the idea of filling your home with plants, but aren’t up for the care and maintenance, consider faux botanicals and succulents. Because there’s no drainage required, you can “pot” them in wide-mouthed vases and baskets or create a faux terrarium in a pretty bowl.
GOOD LIGHTING
Growing plants indoors requires light, especially outside plants. Placed near a brightly sunlit window, various kinds of palm trees can create the feel of an exotic travel destination. Also, take time to read the instructions and talk with your nursery garden experts about the correct lighting for your plants.
SHELF GARDEN
Create an indoor garden by filling an open bookshelf with lush greenery. Instead of placing the unit against a wall, you can turn it into a natural room divider in homes with an open floor plan or in apartment living rooms. Plants also accent ladder shelves nicely and rarely require dusting.
USE MOSS LETTERS
Bring the outdoor freshness of moss and ivy inside your home with moss letters. They bring a zesty personal touch to any wall. Just be sure to keep them away from direct sunlight. Also, don’t forget to take down and water your moss letters, so they remain fresh and green.
SLEEP WELL
The snake plant takes in carbon dioxide and emits oxygen at nighttime to keep your bedroom’s air fresh and clean. Consider keeping one on your dresser or a table by a window. You can also try placing a pot of live lavender on your bedside table to relax you and help you fall asleep after a busy day.
