With such a huge range of plants to choose from, here are some leafy ideas for filling your various indoor spaces with options that fit like a glove.

HUMID BATHROOMS AND KITCHENS

Many plants that we love growing indoors have come from tropical and subtropical forests, so they’re ideally suited for growing in the most humid areas around our homes, which are usually in the kitchen and bathroom. Plants that love these steamy rooms include calatheas, moth orchids, anthuriums, kentia and parlour palms, syngoniums, maidenhair and hare’s foot ferns, peace lilies and spider plants. During dry weather or when indoor heating or cooling dries out the air, these plants will enjoy having their foliage regularly misted with water.
