By - April 17, 2024

It is a truth, well acknowledged that homes with pets are usually also filled with cheer and good energy all year round? Turns out, plants can have the same effect on one’s home!

It makes sense, too. Many studies, spanning people and cultures across the world, have proven that having and maintaining indoor plants lends very positively to various aspects of one’s life. 

For one, they are great at facilitating and encouraging focus and productivity. Aside from providing just the perfect amount of clean and fresh oxygen within one’s home, indoor plants also make for a calm and relatively stress-free environment, which further allows for higher productivity. 

Speaking of calm, they’re also great for therapeutic purposes. Flowering indoor plants often give off beautiful fragrances; fragrance has known scientific benefits in alleviating mood and instilling a sense of calm in people. 

And of course, mini-indoor gardens are probably nature’s best air purifying systems. Homes in cities often deal with unclean or polluted air. Having a scattering of indoor plants also helps in cleaning out that air, giving you and your family fresh, clean air to breathe – it’s a wonder what just a bit of green can do. 

Now, one indoor plant that has become increasingly popular, not just as an indoor fauna favourite but also as an interior design option, is the money plant.  

Money plant lends itself to indoor home gardens for a variety of reasons. First things first, it’s extremely adaptive. Being a low maintenance plant, it can deal with a lot of neglect before it totally gives out. It’s also very quick to revive, forever giving its owners a second chance. 

Another reason many opt for this green beauty to decorate the house, is because it can be grown in a variety of forms. Depending on the type of money plant you get – creeper, potted, etc – you could accentuate your home differently. 

And, finally, one big and intriguing reason many decide to bring the money plant into their home is that, in various interior design and home-making philosophies like Vastu and Feng Shui, the plant is said to bring home positivity, good luck and prosperity, specifically, financial prosperity. 

Now, here are a few ways you can use money plants to liven up the various spaces in your homes and add that extra green touch! 

Wall Gardens

Wall gardens are a great interior design solution when it comes to incorporating money plants and other indoor greenery in your home. Choose any wall in your home and transform it into a wall of total vegetation. 

Given the layout of many city homes, indoor plants now come in planters that can be attached to walls, making decorating with them super convenient and efficient, with regards to space. 

Wall gardens are a great way to have all your indoor vegetation on full display, as opposed to them being tucked away in random corners of one’s home. This set-up also makes for easy management and maintenance and is pretty economical in terms of the time taken to put it all together. 

In the case of a walled garden, potted forms of money plant work best. This type of money plant typically has bigger, lush green leaves that make for an eye-catching accent in your home. 

Hanging Bursts of Green

Another cost-effective and convenient way of using money plants and other indoor plants to decorate your home, is using hangable planters. A popular accent in interior design and décor these days, hanging planters are a great way of showcasing your money plant and adding vibrancy to your home. 

For this kind of decoration, it’s important to find a sturdy planter that will take the weight of a potted money plant. The best part of this kind of display is that it can be incorporated into literally every part of one’s home. While corners work best for this set-up, hanging planters can be placed in your living room, bedroom, balcony, kitchen, dining room – you name it. 

When it comes to decorating with hanging planters, it’s also possible to show off different varieties of money plant. Since the planters are hanging, you could use the creeper versions of the plant – the tendrils growing out of the planter to make for a beautiful sight. Potted versions of the money plant also look beautiful. 

Window Planting

Windows and spaces with windows around have always made for the perfect spot when it comes to any kind of indoor flora and fauna. Aside from providing the plants with ventilation and sunlight, they also make for an aesthetic indoor picture. 

When decorating in window spots, again, you could use most forms of money plant. Creepers are great if the window is isolated from any main living/ utility area as they give the space a rustic and earthy feel. If you choose to decorate with potted money plants, you could place multiple small plants in a lengthwise planter and keep it near a window sill, or combine posts of different sizes to create a quirky nook of money plant. 

If you’re going with the latter, you can even choose a combination of other potted plants to create the perfect mix-n-match look with your money plant. 

Money plants and other indoor plants are a great way to accentuate the interiors of your home. Not only are they aesthetically pleasing, but they’re also beneficial to your mental and physical health.
