Which Houseplant Suits Which Room

When furnishing your apartment, is there a corner that remains empty and you don't know what to put there? Or does your room not feel cozy and personal enough? Then why not try a beautiful large plant! Plants not only have the effect of looking beautiful and bringing a feel-good atmosphere into your home, but they are also natural air purifiers. However, it's not that easy to find the right plants for your interior style and your individual apartment. Here you will get tips and inspiration on how you can turn your apartment into your own personal feel-good environment with just a few plants.

The right environment for your plant

Every plant needs different conditions and each room in an apartment offers different ones. For example, the bathroom is suitable for tropical plants as they are already accustomed to high humidity and can even absorb it - like the Yucca palm, the Ficus Benjamini or the Spider plant. The Snake plant is particularly suitable for the bedroom as it can absorb CO2 from the air and process it. But also Ivy, Zamioculcas, and all types of Pothos are very easy to care for, do not need much sunlight and are very suitable for the usually rather darker bedroom in every house.And even in the living room, there are plants such as the Monstera or the various Ficus varieties that fit into almost any corner or, like the Dragon or Money tree, into any shelf.

The A and O: Know and create light conditions

When buying a new plant, you should primarily pay attention to the light conditions for the plant. A plant that needs a lot of light should not be placed in a dark corner and vice versa. Very beautiful plants that do not need much light and that you can put in a rather dark room are, for example, the Parlor Palm, the Aralia, and all types of Ivy. The Yucca Palm, the Elephant's Foot, and the Fiddle Leaf Fig, on the other hand, need quite a lot of sunlight.

Which plants suit which interior design style?

Plants and flowers suit every style and belong to every interior. However, there are still plants that particularly suit different apartments. If you like the modern, minimalist industrial style, then you should pay attention to elegant and subtle plants. The Strelitzia, the dragon and money tree, the Chinese fig and the Monstera fit perfectly with this interior style and complement the rather cool, purist atmosphere - they offer a natural counterpoint. It also makes a big difference which flower pots are used: woven or linen pots suit the country house style, ceramic pots suit the boho style and metal pots suit the industrial style very well.
