One of the best ways to make a space feel lush and lively is by adding indoor trees. While they won't grow as tall as their outdoor counterparts, indoor trees can reach your ceilings and bring your interior design to new heights. Here are some of the best indoor trees to consider:
Fiddle leaf figs make excellent statement plants with their large, paddle-shaped foliage. While they can begin small as tabletop houseplants, fiddle leaf figs can grow into full trees up to ten feet tall. As long as you provide your fiddle leaf fig with enough bright indirect sunlight and moderate humidity, it will serve as a stunning focal point in any home.
Rubber trees are another example of indoor trees you can buy as small houseplants and watch grow to maturity. If you don't want to wait, it's common to find larger rubber trees to bring home and instantly enhance the interior design style of any room. Requiring bright indirect light and consistent watering, rubber trees are relatively easy to care for. Make sure to give the large, glossy leaves a thorough wipe to remove dust and keep them healthy.
Parlor palms are a staple among indoor tree enthusiasts, and it's easy to understand why. These lush, flowing trees are also non-toxic to animals, making them perfect for pet owners. Keep your parlor palm in a spot with medium to bright indirect light and maintain even soil moisture and this tree will thrive in your home.
I grew up in a small town in Wyoming and married my high school sweetheart. I purchased my first home when I was 18 and immediately found a passion for real estate. One year later, I passed the Wyoming Real Estate Exam, and successfully purchased my second property! I love to help people navigate the real estate process and connect with my customers to help them achieve their real estate goals! With more than 25 years of experience in the industry – including residential, commercial, timeshare sales, and property management: I thrive on new opportunities to assist Buyers and Sellers. When not listing a property or negotiating an offer, you may find me on the beach enjoying some "Salt Life", volunteering at my child's school, and helping out in the community. Finally, I am proud to sit on the board of directors of a dedicated 501c3 foundation & help veterans, active service members, & first responders find relief from PTSD through scuba diving.
