A flower garden is not only beautiful, but also a very useful thing. Plants in the house give comfort, fill the air with freshness, take negative energy and are simply pleasing to the eye.
If you are tired of plant pots placed on the windowsills, you can go for a different scenario.
POTS PENDANTS
These plant pots look amazing and unusual. Plants are planted upside down. The main advantage of hanging pots is that they take up a minimum of space, they fit even the most small room using the useless space on the ceiling.
Not all flowers grow in such pots, but orchids, phalaenopsis, tillandsia, scindapsus and ferns will definitely grow. Often pendants are equipped with a water tank, which solves the problem with watering. You should not worry about the land either: the pot has a special mesh in the lower part that holds the ground back.
PLANT + LIGHTING
Designers thought of creating flower pots combined with lamps. Stylish and practical solution, need to say. Such pleasures are not cheap, but the idea is simply wonderful. Often these pots are equipped with colored LEDs that can change their color.
LED pots are well protected from moisture, have a built-in battery, power supply and infrared remote control. The backlight creates an incredibly romantic atmosphere that will not leave anyone indifferent. But ordinary lamps, where the lower part is presented in the form of an aquarium for flowers, are also sold - they look even more luxurious than LED pots. These light pots will look great in any room.
FLORA-CUBA
An ordinary houseplant can become a real design element if placed in original flower pots. non-standard shape(i.e. cube).
The edges of the flora cube can be colored, which will make the pot even more non-standard and pretty. The minimalistic design of the pot makes it versatile, so you can put the plant in any room.
TEA-SET
Charming flower pots are obtained from an unnecessary tea set (you can even with chipped edges, arms and legs). Plant small plants in tea cups, arrange them nicely on a tray, and stick old spoons into the ground.
Larger plants can be planted in the teapot and coffee pot. Such a tea and flower arrangement will decorate any dinner table, a tea set with planted flowers will look especially beautiful on a veranda or patio.
AQUAFARM
"How far technology has come!" - aqua farm is a wonderful contraption that combines an aquarium and miniature plants. The system is not only original, but also self-sufficient: the roots of plants feed on the waste products of fish, which is why the water in the aquarium is purified and the plants are always “full”. Great choice for lazy people.
VERTICAL GARDENING
Or a phytowall, which is recent times gain popularity. You will not find such a flower arrangement in every apartment, but it creates a comfortable microclimate in the room. It is a phytowall a kind of construction made of a plastic base, planted on it with living plants and decorative elements.
Some phytowalls are equipped with a built-in system for convenience. automatic watering and connected to the smart home control panel. The decorative technique is the most powerful, and the aesthetic pleasure received at the sight of a phytowall is indescribable.
FLOWER STACKS
A simple but not typical solution to create a "green corner" at home. Shelves save a lot of space in the apartment, create a harmonious atmosphere at home. Multi-storey stands can be made of different materials: wooden - they are not very practical and durable, because the tree loses its shape over time, becomes a haven for fungi and dampness.
But at the same time, wooden flower shelves will perfectly fit into the interior in country style, Provence, classic, Scandinavian and the like. Metal - fit perfectly into almost any interior (look especially good in minimalism, modern, hi-tech, loft) and are distinguished by high performance. Glass - eco-friendly, safe and look very stylish. Only when choosing a glass bookcase, pay special attention to the strength of the shelves, otherwise safety will turn into danger. Plastic - a budget option, do not overload the interior, look simple and airy (again, do not forget about the strength of the material, otherwise, a shelf made of low-quality plastic will quickly lose its shape and become unusable). Wicker - interesting option, ideal for country and eco style. It looks harmonious, elegant and very non-trivial.
SUSPENDED PLANTS
A great alternative to scoop pots on the windowsill or when windowsills are so narrow that it is simply not possible to put plants on them.
Hanging planters are a container in which a pot with a plant is installed and the whole structure is suspended. This method well preserves plants from the attacks of domestic animals (especially cats, who strive to try the leaves and flowers on the tooth).
The first sign of any residential interior is the active use of houseplants. Regardless of which plants you choose, green pets are an important tool for creating a cozy atmosphere. Long gone are the days when flowers were just a backdrop for the rest of the furnishings.
Today, living decor has become an independent direction in interior design, and floristry has moved into the category of filigree art.
Functions of plants in the interior
All plants have their own personality, character and "talents". They not only contribute to harmony and pleasant arrangement of life, but also solve other important tasks. Designers distinguish several roles of greenery.
The way the space is divided
Zoning can be carried out using a hedge of vines, the shoots of which are fixed on special lattice screens or supports. Large single plants in floor pots placed in a row will also do the job just fine.
Maintaining a favorable microclimate, air purification. The leaves of indoor plants (sansevieria, aloe, dracaena, philodendron) serve as a "factory" for the production of oxygen, support required humidity in the room.
Spathiphyllum, hamedorea and ficus will purify the air of toxins, benzene fumes and other volatile fractions that enter the house from the street through an open window. Geranium will help destroy bacteria and viruses, enriching the air environment with phytoncides.
All plants act as natural antidepressants to help cope with nervous disorders, improve sleep quality.
Disguise
Greenery will perfectly cover empty spaces in the interior, giving it a finished look. When filling small corners or niches, choose one showy plant that will complement color solution interior. For large areas, complex compositions and still lifes are suitable. You can disguise not only voids, but also repair defects.
Bright visual accent
exotic flowering plants, including orchids, tuberoses, amazon lilies and other flowers, attract the eye and emphasize the individuality of the home.
In order for plants to delight and delight guests and hosts, it is necessary to provide them with comfortable conditions existence. The determining factor for rapid growth is the cardinal direction:
North. Dieffenbachia, cyclamen, anthurium, aspidistra, ficus, aglaonema, fittonia, clivia and monstera are suitable for cultivation.
South. It is worth considering succulents (opuntia, haworthia, schlumbergera, crassula), as well as jasmine, hibiscus, rose and citrus. Plants need to be shaded from direct sunlight to the best, to arrange ventilation.
West. Suitable asparagus, sansevieria, cissus, eucalyptus, codeum, cattleya, saintpaulia, fuchsia, reo, spathiphyllum and ragwort.
East. This is the most optimal side for green pets. You can install a planter with stephanotis, clerodendrum, myrtle, geranium, etc.
Transplantation of indoor plants is carried out in the spring (end of February - April). At this time, they wake up from a state of rest and begin to grow shoots. You can not transplant greens at the time of flowering and immediately after purchase. A universal scheme for the process: young plants up to 3 years old are moved to a new flowerpot annually, adult specimens - after 2-3 years.
It is better to transplant flowers into a pot slightly larger than the previous one than immediately into a large container. Some plants (orchids, hippeastrums) prefer cramped containers. An overly spacious place of residence can cause a lack of flowering. Transshipment is considered the least painful method of transplantation. In this case, the earthen clod is transferred to a new flowerpot with the addition of soil on the sides of the pot.
Choosing plant stands
An extensive collection of green pets is not always possible to place on the windowsill. The ideal option becomes a flower stand. A well-chosen design will save space and be a creative interior detail.
According to the location, floor and wall stands are distinguished. Both types of accessories can be made of metal, plastic, wood, stone or glass. Forged metal pedestals in the form of a medieval carriage or bicycle are popular. They fit perfectly into the vintage design of the room.
To decorate the interior in the style of a loft or Provence, you can use wooden stands-shelves. Set lush and large bushes of greenery down, and on upper shelves place graceful flowers small size. So the room looks spacious and elegant.
For small rooms, we recommend choosing wall stands. The simplest of them can be done by hand. To do this, you need a wooden blank for the base, a pair of straps and fasteners. In rooms with low ceilings place elongated flowers in a narrow floor vase.

When planning interior decoration with flowers, consider the specifics of the rooms. Photo collection of indoor plants in various premises below.
For spacious living rooms, tall plants - palm trees, hibiscus, monstera, abutilons, zamiokulkas will be a worthy choice. If the living room has a colorful wall covering, then choose broad-leaved flowers, with a plain wall design, you can choose greens with small leaves.
In the nursery, you can put a planter with violets or dracaena. They replace the ionizer, moisturizing the air well. In the interior of a children's room, plants that are poisonous and dangerous for babies should not be placed - spurge, oleander, cacti.
In the kitchen, those plants that are adapted to temperature extremes will feel good. These are aloe, ficus and asparagus. The traditional kitchen inhabitant is chlorophytum, it absorbs all odors during cooking and absorbs fumes.
For the bedroom, representatives of the flora are suitable, actively releasing oxygen. And for the hallways - unpretentious, shade-tolerant plants (sansevieria, aglaonema).
Fashionable interior floristry ideas
In the top of fashionable interior novelties in 2017, indoor plants placed in glass florariums. This is stylish decoration for the home in the form of a mini-garden enclosed in a bottle, aquarium or jar. To create such a decor are suitable dwarf plants, succulents.
It should be noted that landscapes in glass containers are a temporary decorative element. Green spaces are growing, and one day they will become crowded in the florarium. In such a situation, they must be transplanted into a larger vessel or a regular flowerpot.
Artificial flowers have recently been a symbol of bad taste and mauvais ton. But modern technologies production made it possible to produce decorative compositions that look almost indistinguishable from living ones. Such decorations have many advantages: they do not need to be watered and replanted, they are not susceptible to diseases and do not cause allergies.
