The easy-care houseplants we absolutely want in our home!
Contents
The ultimate trend in interior design is undoubtedly green plants.
Having a real jungle at home (or almost) is what we all want.
But the best thing is to know how to take care of your plants, otherwise they won't embellish your stay for very long...
Discover our green indoor plants that are easy to take care of,
even for the least experienced planter!
That's it, you're going for it: you want green plants in your house.
The trend is towards the indoor "jungle", and you want to make the most of it in your apartment or house. Except that...
every plant that passes through your hands has a fatal fate.
Don't panic! We have selected for you the green plants that are the easiest to maintain to avoid disaster.
You are bound to find what you are looking for!
La Monstera Deliciosa
Even if its name might frighten at first glance, don't be afraid: the Monstera alone represents the jungle with its large jagged leaves recognizable among a thousand.
That's normal, since it comes directly from the tropical forests of South America!
It likes rather humid atmospheres, so if you fog it regularly, it will grow very quickly.
So fast, in fact, that it could even become slightly invasive...
You should also think about installing a stake for it when it starts to lose the weight of its leaves.
Just like in the forest, you must offer it a bright room, but avoid imposing the sun's rays directly on it (the leaves could then turn brown).
Water her about once a week, and watch her leaves.
If they have too much water, they will change colour quickly (turning yellow).
The cactus
Of course, it's impossible not to mention the cacti! It is probably the easiest type of plant to care for in the world!
However, there are a lot of preconceived ideas about them: some people recommend hardly ever watering them, except that in reality, a little bath can do them the most good.
In winter, let the soil of your cactus soak in water about once every two months.
In summer, give your cactus a bath once a month.
Your cactus will thank you!
Apart from that, the cactus also needs light to grow well, and that's it! Don't hesitate to buy several of different sizes and shapes, as cactus accumulation is very trendy.
Aloe Vera
Acquiring Aloe Vera is a wise decision: in summer, watering once a week (barely) is necessary.
In fact, it really needs to be watered when the soil is completely dry.
The only thing it fears is too much water. If it has a little light, it will grow well.
In addition to being easy to care for and very pretty, Aloe Vera can also be useful if you have a small wound or sunburn...
And yes, you know that inside its leaves, its gel is extremely beneficial for the skin! In short, it is surely the ideal plant...
The succulents
You've obviously seen them everywhere lately: the succulent ones are selling like hotcakes! And with good reason: they are so easy to care for that you sometimes wonder if they are real plants!
Just like cacti, all they need is light.
Watering is so rare that they are an ideal option for a terrarium.
Again, don't hesitate to collect them: in a bunch, they're adorable!
La Sansevieria
Very vertical, this plant has a graphic side that we like to exploit in decoration.
The Sansevieria is also called "mother-in-law's tongue" because of its original shape.
It can climb up to 1m50 if it is raised in ideal conditions!
And not surprisingly, we let you guess what it needs...
light! Not directly either, at the risk of drying it out.
Watering once a week will also suffice, and remember to repot it once every two or three years for optimal growth!
The Pilea Peperomioides
Pilea is a variety of succulent that comes from southwest China.
This plant is also nicknamed "Chinese currency" in reference to its beautiful round leaves like coins.
We like its graphic aspect and its feminine style which fits perfectly in our interior decoration.
The Pilea Peperomioides has everything to please even those who do not have a green thumb: it requires little watering, is easy to cut and purifies the air.
And above all, the Chinese coin plant is known to bring good luck!
