How to Pick Plants For Your Living Room

As living rooms are multifunctional spaces, you want to create an atmosphere that promotes a relaxed yet wakeful state. You should be able to feel lively enough to face the day ahead yet calm enough to curl up on your sofa. The plants in this collection do a bit of both, so you should have no trouble finding the perfect green companion(s) for you.

Plants have specific environmental needs, and each home is different, so take stock of what your living room is like and consult our advice below. Remember: the best way to understand your plant’s needs is to think about the environment it comes from. And don’t panic! Plant care isn’t as hard as people think. First and foremost, think about the atmosphere that you are looking to create. Then, choose the plants that will foster this quality.

Plants for Sunny Spots

If you have an empty spot on a windowsill, you could fill it with a sun-loving succulent! The Spiral Cactus is one of those no-fuss indoor plants that will be very happy in a warm room with lots of sun. With its unique, spiralling body, it's an unusual succulent that will last for years to come.

For plants that like it warm, look no further than the Banana Plant. You might not get any fruit from this plant, but its stunning foliage will make more than up for it. This plant does tend to get thirsty quickly, so water it as soon as the top layer of soil is dry. Its tropical look will bring warmth into your home, no matter what season it is.

Beautiful Plants for Bright Rooms

Many plants will thrive in a spot with indirect sunlight, where their leaves and stems don't have the sun shining directly on them. Add a bit of structure and a splash of bright green into your plant collection with the Golden Goddess Philodendron. Let the plant grow by watering it regularly and keeping it in a spot with some bright indirect light.

Plants can benefit your physical wellbeing by filtering toxins out of the air, keeping them out of your lungs. This is part of their natural 'breathing' process. A plant that is particularly skilled at it is the Snake Plant. It's a super low-maintenance plant that loves a spot on your shelf with medium light. A beautiful green wonder that you'll love for its sculptural simplicity.

Spaces With Little Light

You might have an empty corner that doesn't get much light over a day. Some tough plants tolerate these low light conditions. One of those is the ZZ Plant, also called Emerald Palm. It's got glossy green leaves on upright stems that will brighten up any room.

How These Living Room Plants Care for You

Adding to your plant collection, and making it more diverse, has the power to trigger positive cognitive responses. According to psychologists, this stems from our ancestors, who would have known subconsciously that a biodiverse area would be healthy and habitable. Use a variety of sizes and colours to create a green oasis in your home, which will help to boost your wellbeing.

Certain forms, patterns, and colours found in nature have been shown to lower systolic blood pressure and activate our alpha response, which means that we are relaxed yet wakeful. We've selected the plants in the collection above to help you create a calm and revitalising space. Every single one of them has specific characteristics that will help foster one or the other (or both!).
