4 Tips for creating an elegant indoor garden

1. Choose the right plants for your indoor garden

Decorating an indoor garden is a way of adding value to a luxury property , but it always depends on your personal preferences. We leave you with some plant suggestions that you can use to create a garden tailored to your needs.

Create an aromatic plant garden

Aromatic plants are great for perfuming the environment. Its aromas can diffuse, stimulating the senses.

These are some of the plants that, in addition to adding visual beauty, also flavor the house and can be used in teas or cooking.

  • Rosemary: Fresh and stimulating scent;
  • Lemon balm: Refreshing and invigorating aroma;
  • Peppermint: Minty and fresh fragrance;
  • Lavender: Relaxing and calming aroma.

Select plants that convey sophistication and elegance

These luxurious plants elevate the aesthetics of the indoor garden, bringing sophistication and refinement. However, although they are stunning plants, they require some care, so you need to give them special attention.

  • Lilies: Lilies provide elegant flowers and are available in many colors.
  • Monstera delicious: The leaves of this species, also called “Adam’s Rib”, are large and showy, in a beautiful shade of green.
  • Anthurium: Anthurium flowers are exotic and have a very characteristic waxy shine.

Choose plants that are simple to care for

Do you have a hectic routine or lack of time to take care of plants? There are some species that combine beauty and resistance, and are highly sought after for decorating indoor gardens . These plants require less care, requiring little watering and maintenance.

  • Cacti: You can recreate desert landscapes in your indoor garden with different species of cacti. As they have water storage structures, cacti do not require frequent watering.
  • Succulents: These plants are resistant and have fleshy leaves with very varied shapes.

2. Invest in sophisticated decorative pieces

To beautify your indoor garden you can use small decorative elements . Alternatively, you can highlight a large central piece, which unifies the interior garden and highlights all its beauty.

A source

Fountains are associated with purification and reflection. Their appearance and the relaxing sounds of the water bring a touch of tranquility to the environment.

Placing a fountain in the center of the indoor garden makes it easier to organize plants and other decorations. You just need to select a font whose aesthetics fit in with the other elements and have appropriate dimensions.

A tree

Placing a tree in the center of your indoor garden is also a very popular option. Trees are symbols of strength, stability and wisdom.

However, the species and space conditions must be taken into account. It is also important to consider the size and growth of the tree, so that it remains at an appropriate size for the garden area.

  • Areca Palm : It has green leaves and thin, elegant stems. This species is perfect for smaller areas, adding a sense of tropical lushness to the space. Its dimensions make it a very popular choice for small indoor gardens.
  • Dracena Draco : Also known as the dragon tree, this species has a sculptural trunk and pointed leaves. It adds a dramatic and sophisticated element. Its imposing presence and unique shape make it a bold choice for creating a luxurious space.

Another option to add refinement and serenity to any indoor garden is to decorate with Bonsais . These small trees convey all the grandeur of the plant species they represent, but in a small size.  

3. Decorate the house and garden using glass elements
