Use Aesthetic Plants Like Fiddle Leaf Figs in Your Interior Design
Hold the new paint, wallpaper and carpeting. You don't have to spend a lot of money to glam up your home or office. Houseplants are the way to go, but not just any stretched-out ivy or droopy fern will do. Choose aesthetic plants instead — the ones that earn their place in the sun (or shade) thanks to their rich colors, interesting leaves, and attractive forms and textures.
We’ve rounded up 15 of the best aesthetic plants for indoor spaces. Some are nearly carefree. A few are a little more sensitive about water, light and temperatures, but match your favorites to the growing conditions you can provide and then watch them grow.
This large fiddle leaf fig (Ficus lyrata) makes a spectacular focal point. Dwarf types are available for smaller spaces. These indoor trees have glossy, violin-shaped leaves and need bright, filtered light, a well-draining potting mix and moderate amounts of water. Mist often to raise the humidity around your plant.
