For today’s post, I’ve put together a top ten of my favourite houseplants to give as gifts. Plants make excellent presents for all kinds of milestone moments, but they also cater for those everyday gestures of gratitude too. Congratulatory wishes sit alongside ‘thank yous’ or ‘thinking of you’ sentiments, wrapped up in a plant pot-sized…

For today’s post, I’ve put together a top ten of my favourite trailing houseplants that I love to grow here at HOUSE PLANT HOUSE. It wasn’t until I moved again last Summer that I realised that quite a chunk of my plant collection comprises of hanging or trailing houseplants! As I’ve been finding places for…

We are stepping outside for today’s post + talking about planting inspiration for small space gardening. This is the first instalment of a 2-part blogpost, in which I’ll be focusing on pots + planters. Next week in Part 2, I will be sharing my initial sketches for planting ideas if square footage is a little…

It’s no secret that my big Monstera is my favourite houseplant here at houseplanthouse. I think I’m most drawn to the large green leaves + human scale of the plant which instantly brightens up a room + brings it to life. Even if you only have a few plants, a Monstera can become a stand-out…
