The plant is back in the building woot! and we’re loving the extra life and greenery it brings to a space. Any greenery really opens the environment up and makes it feel more livable- makes sense, technically there are more living things in the room now! After I jumped on the Fiddle Leaf bandwagon, I’ve been wanting to add a new plant or two to the loft.
Thankfully, I’ve had pretty good luck in the houseplant department thus far miracle! and am happy to report, I haven’t had to bury too many green friends in the plant cemetery. Don’t be fooled, by no means am I a green thumb, but sites like my new favorite, The Sill, certainly help me feel more like an expert. They break down the care of the most popular houseplants they even break down plants by personalities so that you can find the perfect plant for your lifestyle! and are my go-to reference for the current or future plant lover.
In order to steer clear of the black thumb club, I make sure I’ve aced my one on one time with the employee at the gardening store before I even dare bring a plant home with me. There is something so depressing about watching the leaves on your plant turn yellow and then a whithered brown and feeling like you have no control over nursing it back to health. Isn’t it the worst feeling, ever?
We’re currently reading up on the care guides of these guys The Sill offers PDF’s that you can download here! because we want to bring some new life into the new office! Here’s a quick breakdown of our top picks:
I vote for something like the Snake Plant which is cool and graphic, but it might be a good idea to have low maintenance guys around like cacti since we’re always running around and are likely to forget to water them! Oops. One thing for sure is that you don’t already, you must buy a Pothos for your home. It’s our go-to plant besides our trusty Fiddle Leaf Fig tree! and according to the plant experts, you can take a sledge hammer to it and it won’t die. We’ll see about that…
