https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_487/at%2Fhouse%20tours%2Farchive%2FTinyhousemama%2F39277025a5047aacb6cec285a8b352ee06f97888

We all know on some level, even if we forget from time to time, that the filtered and staged images we see on Instagram aren’t exactly real life. Take, for instance, a picture-perfect plant placed in just the right woven basket in a ubiquitous pale-palette living room. It could be a happy, healthy plant cared […]

Where to Find Highly Instagrammable, Long-Lasting Monstera Leaves

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

There are literally hundreds of houseplants to choose from, so where do you start? First let’s rule out the usual suspects: Everyone and their […]

  “Proplifting”—picking up fallen succulent leaves off the floors at big box stores and taking them home to propagate—is the hot new thing in the plant world, to the point that there’s a subreddit devoted to it. If you’d like to give it a try, here are a bunch of inspiring posts to get you […]

https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_488/stock%2Fshutterstock_1694464831

  By now you’re probably well acquainted with Monstera deliciosa—that gigantic, sculptural houseplant straight out of Mad Men that currently appears in roughly 75 percent of all design bloggers’ Instagram posts. It’s adored equally for being easy to grow and looking good next to a mid-century sofa. But have you met its cousin, Monstera adansonii? Because we’d really like […]

https://cdn.apartmenttherapy.info/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto:eco,c_fit,w_730,h_487/at%2Farchive%2F14ee4ca56551422d74f2c0b066e7e67dc6e6de6a

  Choosing the right houseplant for your space isn’t exactly a science. Also not a science? Astrology. But much like covering your apartment in greenery, exploring what your zodiac sign might reveal about your personality is a ton of harmless fun (for not a ton of money). We’ve taken the joy of mapping sun signs […]
