They add so much life to your house and also brings positivity, fresh air in your house. The day you plant an indoor plant in your room you will feel the difference in the energy of your house. They look beautiful, add volume to your room, and level up your decorating skills. Small indoor plants are cute but oversized plants are something you can’t resist. But you should only buy oversized plants when you can take care of them as they are expensive and they require proper watering. Silk or plastic plants may never die, but let’s be honest real plants are greener and have a sense of freshness in them.
Large indoor plants
Fiddle Leaf Fig (Ficus Lyrata)
They are tall, shiny, and fiddle-shaped broadleaf plants suitable for homes that have different lights. Direct and indirect sunlight is needed for this plant so place this one in that room which has some passage for sunlight in it. Regular watering is important but doesn’t overwater it as leaves will start dropping.
Yucca (Yucca elephantipes)
It is a desert plant that doesn’t need much of your attention. One thing to note is that you should place it somewhere it can get plenty of sunlight and regular watering and you are good to go.
Parlor Palm (Chamaedorea Elegans)
They are reminiscent of the tropics and are full of greenery. They have thin leaves and are best for any kind of house. No need for sunlight and avoid overwatering. Keep a check on the soil in summer don’t let the soil dry and in winter a little dry soil is better for watering. They are pet- friendly.
Areca Palm (Chrysalidocarpus Lutescens)
They do well in bright spaces and increase to 10 inches in a year. They are feathery and prefer constant sunlight. Water it when soil is getting dry during spring and summer but in winter let the soil dry little bit before watering. They can grow up to 6-7 feet tall.
Norfolk Island pine (Araucaria Heterophylla)
They havesoft needles and delicate pine look. Moist soil and bright light are best for this plant. Try placing them in a south or west-facing window because it’s not tolerant of dry indoor air. It’s a teeny bit cranky also if you change the light, forget to water or overwater. It is super sensitive to any type of environmental stress as needles drop—and once gone, they don’t regrow.
