17 Houseplant Decor Ideas for the Home

Ready for some houseplant decor ideas for the home? Decorate with houseplants in every room throughout the home. They easily fit into every decor style. Some houseplants are easier to care for than others. The benefits of plants are many. For starters, healthy plants are attractive on their own. Plants give a natural, visual appeal to the home. They singlehandedly enhance the surrounding environment.

Feel a little low today? Take a look at a plant. Plants are mood lifters. Just as nature makes us feel good, so do houseplants. They have the ability to uplift our spirits and help improve our mood. Take a walk outdoors in a park or down a trail as many of us do at the first sight of the Spring season, a joyous feeling. Indoor plants give instant appeal to your decor style.  

Improve Indoor Air Quality

Keep the indoor air cleaner with air purifying houseplants. Many indoor houseplants are known to improve indoor air quality and are listed in the NASA study.  In addition to this, these NASA-tested plants are known to remove some toxins from the air.  

Some houseplants are easier to care for than others. If you worry about plants being troublesome to keep healthy and thriving, there are plants that have low care needs. Do a little research on lighting and water requirements for plants. Then determine the best indoor plant choices for your home environment. And remember that even the most seasoned gardeners lose plants indoors and outdoors for a variety of reasons. Sometimes plants do not survive the season. The important thing is to take note of what worked and what didn’t work when you had success with a plant. If you failed, try again. Don’t give up. Keep a garden journal as many gardeners do. Document what steps are helpful for each houseplant and what wasn’t helpful. Refer to your garden journal the next time you bring home a houseplant.   

Add indoor plants for a pop of green color. Bring any indoor home space to life with houseplants. In today’s post, we are sharing houseplant decor ideas for the home. You’ll see how houseplants can really transform a home into a comfortable living space.  

Live in a Green Home – Houseplant Decor Ideas 

Houseplants are available in many varieties, styles, and sizes. Some grow straight up known as an upright position. Other plants grow downward or in a trailing position where the plants spread out in a horizontal manner. Plants can also attach themselves to a surface and grow upward or climb. These types of plants are known as vines or climbers. There are plants for every place in your home.   

Take a look at our houseplant decor ideas. Be sure to let us know what your thoughts are.  

Mix a Little Green with a Lot of Blues – Houseplant Decor Ideas

Improve Air Quality in the Bedroom
