Fern

The fern's leaves are voluminous and very beautiful. Using it in hanging vases is the most interesting way to achieve the full effect it can provide to the environment. Try to place it in a space that has no direct light and keep it away from wind exposure, which ends up burning its leaves.

raffia

With a beautiful effect of its long leaves this plant is ideal for larger environments and promises to be a highlight wherever it is placed. Usually it can be watered every two weeks and in the winter only once a month. If its exposure to the sun is greater, increase the frequency of watering.

Zamioculca

Ideal for spaces with low light, the zamioculca stands out for the beautiful color of its leaves that give the impression of being waxed so shiny! Very resistant, this species deserves attention to a curious detail, which is not to water it excessively.

Areca

A very popular and versatile palm tree, the Areca palm gains more prominence when placed in beautiful vases or pots. Attention should be paid to how to position it in the environment, because although it grows well exposed to the sun, its leaves become greener when kept in half shade.

boa constrictor

This charming climbing vine is one of the few that adapts to indoor environments and grows leaning on the pot where it is placed. This type of plant likes to feel thirsty, so the soil must be dry to be watered again, and when kept in the shade its leaves are smaller and greener.

Adam's rib

This plant is remarkable for its dark leaves that imitate the shape of a rib and is the darling of decorative arrangements. It is not indicated for small environments, because its growth is fast and constant. Adaptable to all kinds of environments, it stands out for its strength and resistance and should be kept in half-shade with sufficient watering to keep the soil moist.

Each type of plant requires specific care to be kept alive and looking good, so choose options that are suitable for your type of environment and routine.
