FROM SEEDS TO SERENITY: TRANSFORM YOUR HOME WITH THESE CAPTIVATING DECORATIVE PLANTS!

If you want to add some greenery to your home but don’t know where to start, we’re here to help. There are a lot of plants that can be grown indoors. Some are easy to grow while others require a little more care. Some plants tend to grow best in certain areas of the house (like the kitchen), but there are also many that do well anywhere! In this guide, we’ve compiled the top decorative plants for any indoor setting so that you can get started growing them today:

Coleus

Coleus is a perennial plant, which means it will come back year after year. It’s also part of the mint family, making it an indoor plant that’s easy to care for. Coleus plants can be grown in pots or directly in soil, but they will thrive best if you provide them with plenty of light and water.

You can buy coleus at many garden centers or florists’ shops during spring and summer months (when they’re most likely to be available). If you have trouble finding one near where you live, there are several varieties available online as well!

Junipress

Juniperus is a genus of coniferous trees and shrubs in the family Cupressaceae. The most familiar species are the Junipers (Juniperus communis), which are native to Europe, North America, Asia and northwest Africa.

We, at Bharatvarsh Nature Farms, love junipers because they have such a distinctive look. We’ve put together some tips on how you can incorporate this plant into your home decorating projects:

Jennifer cypress

Jennifer cypress is a fast-growing tree that can reach a height of 10 feet. It has dark green, glossy leaves and white cones in the winter. The trunk of the plant is slender with age, which gives it an elegant appearance.

This slow growing tree is also known as “angel wing” cypress because its leaves resemble wings when they are young. The bark on older trunks becomes furrowed and scaly as well as orange-brown in coloration when mature.

Dracaena

Dracaena is a genus of about 60 species of plants in the family Asparagaceae, native to tropical regions of Africa, Asia, and Madagascar.

They are evergreen shrubs or trees growing from 2 to 20 m tall.

Croton

Croton is a genus of flowering plants in the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae. It was formerly placed in the now-defunct family Tiliaceae.

Croton has a long history of use as folk medicine and as an ornamental plant; however it can be toxic if ingested by humans or animals due to its phorbol ester content.

Plant of the Day

Friday 13 December 2024

Growing in the shade of the tropical-style foliage plants of the Sunken Garden of Great Dixter, Sussex, was the rhizomatous perennial Begonia 'Little Brother Montgomery'. Though not hardy this cane-type begonia thrives when shielded from direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorch and ideally in a temperature range between 15-22°C (58-72°F).

My biggest gardening tip is that if you have $100 to spend on perennial plants you should aim closer to getting twenty little perennials than three or four big perennials. Planting four $25 plants will have a very small impact visually and you’ll be way too precious about them. Five small plants of the same species will make a bigger visual impact than one large plant of the same species. Plants are living things that you’re planting outside in the weather. You should be buying plants with the understanding that they are closer to folding chairs than Ming vases. If you spend $25 on a plant and accidentally step on it, you haven’t killed the plant but you’ve probably broken off about $12 worth of stems. If you step on a $5 plant you’ve caused like $2 worth of damage and it was probably young anyway so it might push out enough new growth to fill back in by the end of the season. You’d have to outright kill 5 of your $5 plants to equal losing one $25 plant. You will always kill some of your plants, or at least they won’t all thrive. Better to lose a $5 plant than a $25 plant.

Also plants grow, usually quickly. Very few perennial plants look good their first year in the ground, buying a bigger plant doesn’t really change that. Most of the time the difference between buying a gallon perennial and a pint perennial is that you dig a bigger hole for the gallon, you pour more water on the gallon, and you watch it look bad more closely.

All I’m saying is that it recently came to my attention that people when people complain about gardening being expensive it’s because they are spending $600 on landscaping that, frankly, looks like nothing bc they’re buying $50 to $100 plants.

this week I am meant to be planting a few hundred combos but the weather this year means all our potting soil is still frozen solid and so. alas.

was helping plant roses yesterday having to literally wield a giant pick axe hacking small frozen bits off like we are in the coal mines. I am so tired.

Plant of the Day

Sunday 2 March 2025

At Edinburgh Botanic Garden, Scotland, there was a fabulous display of snowdrop cultivars including a ‘river’ of Galanthus 'Lady Beatrix Stanley' (snowdrop). This bulbous perennial has well-shaped double flowers and increases reliably to create a striking spring feature.

Oakland's Radical Plant Nursery Breaks the Prison Cycle

Permaculture instructor Andrew Millison journeys to East Oakland, California, to visit the legendary plant nursery Planting Justice, which primarily hires formerly incarcerated people. They provide a fair wage and benefits to former prisoners with unbelievable results: a 2% recidivism rate, compared to 60% for the State of California. The nursery itself has an incredible diversity of edible and useful plant species and varieties, custom selected to grow an epic permaculture garden.
