Flower power! Bright, colorful plants can be the perfect pick-me-up. But growing flowers indoors can be tricky.
Fortunately, some varieties are easier than others for indoor cultivation. Look for low-maintenance choices that don’t need too much sunlight or space. Here are favorites for fresh floral flair in any room of your home:
African Violets are delicate and easy to look after. Choose a pot with good drainage, keep it watered, and provide plenty of indirect light, and you’ll have bright blooms all year round.
Ivy is another simple option that’s hardy and forgiving, even if you forget to water it. Plus, it’s an excellent air purifier – ideal for those days spent inside!
Azaleas are a stunning addition to any windowsill – they love slightly acidic soil, so add composted mulch to help keep their gorgeous petals looking alive and vibrant.
Orchids make beautiful houseplants but do require some attention when it comes to humidity levels – adding a humidity tray or misting regularly may be necessary protection against browning tips on their delicate petals.
Finally, succulents feature in many modern interiors due to their spiky texture and simple maintenance requirements – no need for regular watering here; a weekly deep soak should suffice!
