How to give your interior a green upgrade 🌱
Plants are more than decoration. They bring calm, color, life — and personality — into your home. Whether you’re dreaming of an urban jungle or a minimalist oasis, the right styling turns any plant into a showstopper. In this blog, I’ll guide you through the world of plant styling — from pots to placement, textures to combinations.
🪴 The right spot: light, mood & balance
Every plant has her preferences. Some love a sunny windowsill, others thrive in shady corners. But styling goes beyond placement:
- Light sets the mood: a Monstera in dappled light evokes tropical vibes, while a Sansevieria in a dim corner brings calm.
- Balance the room: place a tall plant next to a low cabinet to add height, or use trailing plants to soften empty corners.
- Green as a focal point: one large plant in a stylish pot can anchor an entire room.
🎨 Pots & materials: the finishing touch
The pot is your plant’s stage. Choose with intention:
- Terracotta adds warmth — perfect for boho or Mediterranean styles.
- Ceramics in white or pastel make your plant feel fresh and modern.
- Concrete or black steel gives an industrial edge.
Tip: play with height. Use plant stands, hang them up, or try a tiered setup for a playful effect.
🧘 Plants by interior style
Every style has its plant match:
| Interior Style | Plant Ideas |
|---|---|
| Scandinavian | Ficus Tineke, Calathea in white pots |
| Boho | Cactus mix, Pilea, trailing plants in macramé |
| Japandi | Asplenium, Bonsai, minimalist pots |
| Industrial | Sansevieria, Zamioculcas in concrete pots |
Mix leaf textures and colors for extra depth — think glossy vs. matte, deep green vs. variegated.
🧺 Grouping & combining
Green works best in clusters:
- Odd numbers (3 or 5) feel more natural.
- Combine different heights and leaf shapes..
- Group plants on a sideboard, windowsill, or open shelf.
Bonus: add accessories like books, candles, or stones for a botanical vignette.
🧼 Maintenance that enhances style
A well-styled plant is also a well-cared-for plant:
- Wipe leaves with a damp cloth or banana peel for extra shine.
- Remove dead leaves for a fresh look.
- Use a beautiful watering can or mister — practical and decorative.
🌟 Finally: your green signature
Styling with plants is personal. It reflects your taste, rhythm, and space. Whether you choose one statement plant or a full jungle, let your plants tell your story.
