https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_484/project%20prism%2Fcolor%20search%20archive%2F76b87ac00ffec1f181349ff63214ac61f7f4a12a

  We called the Monstera plant trend years ago, and it’s still going strong, and especially on Instagram. Charlotte Parker, social manager of Apartment Therapy’s IPlantEven account, recently told Racked she estimates that Monstera leaves are featured in more than 25% of interior design content she sees on the social media platform these days. Using […]

Unique, Under-the-Radar Oxalis Plants Are Also Low-Maintenance

  Unfortunately for the black thumbs of the world, those darling houseplants of the design blog world are not typically beloved for their ease of care. They’re showstoppers, to be sure, with dramatic leaves and bright blooms, but rarely are they dogged survivors. (We’re looking at you fiddle-leaf fig!) That’s why we’re so excited to […]

  There’s no shortage of plant-obsessed accounts to follow on Instagram. The hashtag #plantsofinstagram alone produces more than 1 million posts, most of which come straight from the hands of plant parents across the globe. And if you’re anything like us, you depend on Instagram posts to help inspire and inform all of your gardening […]

The Trick to Growing Your Own Pineapple At Home

https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_488/at%2Farchive%2F75ced0bf61d1547f2713067a39f61583f6103277

  Fun fact: Pineapples are actually a mmber of the bromeliad family, a tropical species long popular with houseplant enthusiasts for their dramatic spiky leaves and neon-colored blooms. And, it turns out, you can even grow a pineapple as a houseplant, too. You don’t need to make a special trip to the nursery either—just add […]

6 Plants That Naturally Repel Mosquitoes

https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_502/project%20prism%2Fcolor%20search%20archive%2F02fac59e44ce20b1ce6f0d8c3803dfd24a62ccbe

  I live in a one bedroom “garden” apartment, which means that I get to have my own front door, porch, and small strip of flower bed. The only downside? The flower bed is under the porch roof, which means it’s constantly damp and shady, and also an ideal mosquito habitat. So this year, after […]

Creepy Carnivorous Plants Actually Make Great Houseplants

https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_488/at%2Farchive%2F542472698451a5e55bd63788ba12b2bb3b30c6dd

  If you’ve ever seen the cult classic film Little Shop of Horrors, you might have a hard time shaking the feeling that carnivorous plants are out to get you while you sleep. But it’s time to put those images of creepy, singing, human-swallowing alien plants out of your head for good, because meat-eating plants are […]

What Does it Mean When Your Plant Is Leggy?

https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_487/at%2Fhouse%20tours%2Farchive%2FCoralie%20House%20Tour%2Fb91e9da72957521f5cb0bb42362cde0b22a0228a

  Healthy houseplants are generally described as full and bushy. They’ll have lots of dense, sturdy growth and the leaves will be crisp and green rather than limp and yellowing. If your houseplant is “leggy,” it simply means it has gotten a bit unkempt and scraggly, like a formerly stylish haircut that’s grown out unevenly […]

Kalanchoe Is the Most Popular Succulent You’ve Never Heard Of

https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_491/stock%2Fshutterstock_663894538

  There’s no denying that leafy green foliage plants add a calming and homey touch to your decor. Sometimes, though, we want to mix it up with a splash of cheery flowers. Unfortunately, coaxing plants to bloom indoors, where the light is dimmer and the air drier, often requires a more advanced level of green […]

Finally, Something You Can Actually Grow In Your Pitch Black Apartment

https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_487/at%2Fhouse%20tours%2Farchive%2FJane%20Heath%2F7511686ae2d4f6d0502b2c2cc8a71df30f6460b9

  If there’s one thing I could change about my one-bedroom apartment, it wouldn’t be the square footage or the carpet or the weird handle-less kitchen cabinets. It would be the lack of natural light, which sadly stymies my dream of covering every available surface with greenery and growing fresh herbs right in my kitchen. […]

5 Dirty Secrets Your Green Thumb Friends Don’t Want You to Know

https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_1096/project%20prism%2Fcolor%20search%20archive%2Fc4e3dac1a52d16330c725786725839a5df0bb342

  Though it certainly feels like it when you watch people with the gift of making every plant under their care flourish, no one is born with a green thumb: There are only black thumbs who become green thumbs, and black thumbs who haven’t yet. If you’re in the second category, knowing these dirty little […]
