Houseplants a Hit, From Floor to Ceiling

Their new book, “Rooted in Design” (Ten Speed Press, 2015),
demonstrates that houseplants can be a beautiful and creative
element in a home’s decor.
.
Houseplants connect the city dweller to the natural world and
remind us of that symbiotic relationship, write Heibel and de Give.
.
“A room filled with plants can be calming and inspirational as
well as incredibly personal and expressive. Even aloe, a common
household plant, can exude complexity and style when displayed
creatively,” they write.
.
Dividing the home into sectors — wall, ledge, floor, air, table,
kitchen and terrariums (including some for aquatic plants) —
the authors suggest ways to present and care for a variety of
indoor greenery.
.
“It’s easy to get pigeon-holed into certain ideas about plants —
that they always have to be in a certain kind of container or
always be on a shelf or on the floor — and you have to help people
break out of that. Many people now have a really small living
environment and think they don’t have room for plants, but hanging
plants on a wall doesn’t take up any space at all, and it adds a
lot to the decor,” Heibel says.
.
Houseplants can be practical, too, serving as walls or screens,
or providing soothing aromas. Well-chosen plants can be considered
an alternative to cut flowers, or viewed as tiny works of art.
.
Trays of miniature succulents in various shapes, colors and textures
“can be irresistibly small and sweet and inexpensive, like candy,”
Heibel says.
