Chamaeodorea
The Victorians loved a taste of the tropics in their sitting rooms. This plant, often called a parlour palm, was a favourite, allowing them to experience Mexico from their Chesterfield. It’s also said to bring good luck!
Monstera
The trailblazing architectural monstera, now found in any self-respecting plant lover’s home, was first loved by the Victorians. When it arrived from Mexico, they ate it up - well not literally. Evidently its fruit must be perfectly ripe or its sharp needles lodge in the mouth (ouch). Despite this, the plant sparked a trend and sent the Victorians hunting for new and interesting plant specimens. They didn’t have NASA back then, but today NASA tells us that the monstera is one of the most effective plants for reducing air pollution. The plant that launched a thousand houseplants.
Zanzibar Gem
In 1996, things weren’t looking great; ‘Take That’ split up, Charles and Di divorced, but there was hope on the horizon. A clever Dutch nursery found this handsome specimen in the arid grasslands of Africa and brought it back to Europe for propagation. The zamioculcas was set to revolutionise indoor plant collections. Our drought resistant hero withstands infrequent watering and sun deprivation - and yet, it’s shiny green leaves bounce light around the room and are proven to significantly reduce toxins in the air. The zz plant is definitely not asleep on the job.
Blue Star Fern
Each graceful frond is like a helping hand, sucking CO2 out and pushing Oxygen back into the air. The soft, grey-green colour and elegant shape make this popular with interior design enthusiasts. Phlebodium brightens a room and looks beautiful grouped with other plants of varying shapes and sizes. The design ‘Rule of 3’ states that things arranged in odd numbers are more visually appealing, so try it with an asplenium and a ginseng ficus.
Mini Monstera
The is a petite and no less striking version of the trailblazing architectural monstera, now found in any self-respecting plant lover’s home. When it arrived from Mexico, they ate it up - well not literally. Evidently its fruit must be perfectly ripe or its sharp needles lodge in the mouth (ouch). Despite this, the plant sparked a trend and sent the Victorians hunting for new and interesting plant specimens. They didn’t have NASA back then, but today NASA tells us that the monstera is one of the most effective plants for reducing air pollution. The plant that launched a thousand houseplants.
Snake Plant
The snake plant is recommended by NASA's Clean Air Study for its strong air purifying attributes and removes 4 of the 5 toxins common in modern buildings. The plant works most efficiently at night and its soft, silver, grey-green colour makes it a perfect bedroom plant. Breathe in clean air, heavy with oxygen and sleep soundly knowing nature is at work whilst you slumber.
