Who doesn’t dream of an Urban Jungle in your own home, a fresh tropical look all year round. It is well known that houseplants are good for your health and mood. This is because most houseplants have high air purifying qualities, which means that the leaves of houseplants convert bad dust particles in the air into clean oxygen.
Not only that, houseplants also improve indoor humidity. This is extremely good for the air quality in your living spaces and can ensure that you get a better night’s sleep and wake up in good spirits. In addition, the fresh greenness of houseplants has a positive effect on your mood and can even improve your productivity, concentration and creativity, ideal if you like to be productive at home!
Easy green
But not everyone has green fingers or the time and inclination to care for one or more houseplants every day. Don’t worry, there are many different houseplants that are incredibly easy to care for. And not only that, at the online plant shop PLNTS you can choose your favorite houseplants with one click and have them delivered to your home.
The PLNTS website is incredibly useful, as you can search for plants based on your wishes, whether you are looking for cuttings, large houseplants, hanging plants and even animal-friendly plants – great for your beloved four-legged friends at home. But which plants suit you best? We have listed a few easy houseplants for you:
Monstera
The name says it all, this tropical plant can grow very large and is ideal as a real eye-catcher or filler for that empty corner in your living room or bedroom. It is also known as the hole plant, because of its unique large green leaves with holes in them. It has extremely high air purifying qualities due to its large leaves and comes in different sizes and colors, from fresh green to green and white leaves and the largest variant can grow up to 130 – 170 high.
This beautiful plant prefers a semi-shaded spot, but a little extra sun ensures that the leaves grow excellently. Furthermore, it is very easy to care for, another reason why the Monstera family from Central and South America is so popular.
Philodendron
The Philodendron is one of the most popular houseplants of PLNTS and this is due to its unique appearance and its wide range of different colors and sizes. Just like the Monstera, the Philodendron family is extremely easy to care for and has high air purifying qualities. There are approximately 500 Philodendron varieties available, so there is something for everyone.
What makes the Philodendron so unique is that some varieties have the most colorful leaves, such as light pink, light to dark green, white and even shades of red and purple. For example, go for the Philodendron Scandens, or Sweetheart Plant, which can both climb (with a climbing stick as support) and hang, ideal if you don’t have much space on the floor for different plant pots. Or go for the unique Philodendron Prince of Orange, the plant that changes color over time from light yellow to a copper color and ultimately dark green.
Calathea
The Calathea, or peacock plant, is also an extremely popular houseplant because of its unique ‘moving’ leaves, colors and it is also animal-friendly. Just like the Monstera and Philodendron, the Calathea has high air purifying qualities and is extremely easy to care for. This tropical beauty comes in all shapes, sizes and unique leaf patterns.
The Calathea is called the peacock plant because of its unique leaves, but you also know it as the living plant as its leaves curl up in the evening and open completely again in the morning – and if you listen very carefully you can even hear this! Go for a unique Calathea Makoyana whose stem and leaves have an incredibly beautiful purple color. In addition, the leaves resemble peacock feathers.
If you like big things, then the Calathea Orbifolia is the right plant for you, known for its large, full leaves that can grow up to 30 centimeters wide and it also comes in all kinds of different colors, such as pink, light green and even silver tones. !
With one or more of the above houseplants you can transform your home into a green oasis without any hassle. Each variant is easy to maintain and at PLNTS you can easily choose the right houseplant that suits your interior style online.
