Ideas for decorating with plants

First choose based on the light and humidity of the spot, and think about the vibe you're after. Then the style. These combinations come from our design guide:

• Japandi and mid-century

  Large plants in neutral ceramic planters on raised wooden stands. They bring structure and calm. Indoors with indirect light.

  • ZZ plant

• Urban jungle and boho chic

  Trailing textures and fuchsia and purple tones on macramé hangers at different heights. Indoors with medium to high humidity.

  • Multicolor begonia
  • Flame violet

• Desert and minimalist

  Cacti and succulents in terracotta or fired clay pots, in sunny windows, balconies or terraces.

  • Aloe vera

• Tropical patio and entrances

  Lipstick palm or red ginger on either side of the main entrance, for instant color contrast. Outdoors with frequent watering.

  • Lipstick palm
  • Tricolor oyster plant

Already know your style? In Shop by style you'll find the plants that go with each one.
