I really love the trend of putting indoor plants in a basket. They just look better don’t you think? First you need to find an indoor plant that you won’t kill haha. I have ideas for you here and here. OR if you’re really going to kill them (like I do often!) then here is a post […]
Liven up that work or home office with a few indoor plants that will be hard to kill (I know, it’s still possible!). These plants are pretty good in low light, don’t need a lot of love, will clear the air, plus bring you good vibes… Peace Lily A nice colour and leaf shape with […]
The rubber plant has won my heart. It’s becoming my favourite indoor plant. It’s better than the fiddle leaf if you ask me! Big call I know, but look at those leaves! They are thicker, more defined in shape and the colour is stunning. The leaves don’t droop or become tattered like a fiddle leaf […]

Tropical plants are probably best suited. Today I have 6 indoor plants that would love to live in your bathroom. They are pretty hardy and fool proof. Although don’t […]
If you want something on your outdoor table which makes a statement, then a bowl full of succulents is a great place to start. They are so easy to create yourself. Anyone can do it. Now, succulents won’t grow well inside. They are much more suited to outdoors. Here’s a blog post I wrote on […]
I used to be mad about indoor plants back in the year 1999. It was the year I met my husband and moved in with him. Then it sort of became uncool and daggy to have indoor plants. Fast forward a couple of decades or so and I’m back to loving indoor plants again (I […]
If you can get your hands on some rugged looking cactus plants then you should grab them, put them in a mixture of pots and baskets and create a really cool grouped display. I see lots of weird and wonderful cacti pop up on my local buy swap sell Facebook groups. I love the desert […]
We’re all still going strong with the indoor plant trend – well I am anyway! I have a jungle at home…ha! I am addicted that’s for sure. In 2019, the theme for indoor plants is ‘bigger the better’. If you can choose mature plants that already stand a metre or more tall for maximum impact […]
Last week I was a bit lucky and my husband brought home this huge elkhorn. It was his Grandmother’s and it had fallen down (his Father had it) and it was getting a bit burnt in the sun. We think it’s at least 60 years old. You can be excused for calling it a staghorn, […]
Today I’ve got 5 indoor plants which can survive almost in the dark with little fuss. I wrote a post a few months ago on the best Indoor Plants, but I’ve narrowed it down to just a few that are hard to kill! Last week I needed a bit of retail therapy and I text my girlfriend […]
A hanging plant can fill a corner in an instant. Take your house plants up off the ground and on to the walls, hanging from ceilings, put on shelves or even in a plant stand. Below are 10 hanging plants you could add to your home. Most of them are about $30 to buy in […]
Brought to you by Scotts Australia. I love my garden, it’s not massive which is easy to control, but I don’t really have enough time to spend lots of time on it. Neither does my husband. With kids who play a lot of weekend sport we don’t nearly spend as much time in our backyard […]
