5 Favourite Indoor Plants

To be honest, I’m not the gardener in our home. My husband knows I’ll forget to water any indoor plants I’ve purchased on impulse. But I do love having indoor plants and I’ve managed to keep some alive! Here are some of my favourite indoor plants.

Cyclamen

I love the pretty flowers of a cyclamen and the pop of pink it brings into the room. They usually start to flower in April, then flower through to spring, so they are a great winter flower.

Maiden Hair Fern

I haven’t had a lot of success with a maiden hair fern, but I just love the soft and delicate foliage. For tips on how to care for your maiden hair fern alive read How to Keep Your Maiden Hair Fern Alive

Fiddle Leaf Fig

Fiddle Leaf figs are know as the “it” house plant in interior design. No wonder. They really make a statement. I don’t own any fiddle leaf figs, but I love the sculptural element they bring to a room. If you’re a bit of a black thumb, check out this artificial fiddle leaf fig from Temple & Webster.

Orchid

Now I have to fess up. This orchid is artificial. That’s right. It’s a forchid! I have quite a few faux orchids in the house. I did keep a real one alive when I lived in London for nearly a whole year. You can’t go past an orchid for their stunning flower and structure.
