Indoor plants in beautiful pots are a decorating must have in living areas and bathrooms. Good for both appearance and healthy fresh air. Indoor clumping style Palms would be my favourites.

I have an indoor Peace Lily I love that always looks great & is easy maintenance....my indoor palm however is down to two leaves....

Like indoor plants but proportion is the key. The Fiddle Fig is very popular and on trend.

I have a maiden hair fern, orchids that come in when flowering and put outside when green, and recently a rubber plant (as a 70s child I remember my mum having one), a croton petra and a peperonia - silver hearts. I will bring in the aloe vera from time to time and I have some small succulents ready to pot up. I have the advice from my mother in law to choose a pot colour and buy a variety of pots all in the same colour for conformity - and white seems to be the easiest option, Ikea sell a line of white pots and that is where I have started. I want plants in most rooms as I think the green goes well with the timber floors/furniture, and I find them uplifting to know I am caring for them and seeing them grow happily makes my day. If there is enough light then plants will grow.

Indoor plants are back in fashion!

Indoor plants bring in life from the outside in. Rooms with plants to me are relaxing and look more liveable.

@Tribble, I've never known that there was a trend for indoor plants:)

There is.

Magnolia Little Gems look amazing inside!

we've always had indoor plants and almost anyone I've know anywhere I lived had plants..It's never been about a trend. The only ones who do not have plants are those who don't have a green thumb and they are afraid to try

Sometimes classic things become trends. Right now indoor plants are well, blossoming in popularity.

Yay from me, I've always had plants in the house, in every room. Whenever I move them all outside for a cleansing shower in gentle rain, the house looks so unloved and bare. There is nothing better for softening hard edges. They clean the air, they absorb harmful electromagnetic energy from appliances. I never could understand people who don't have plants in the house.

Here are two that are almost impossible to kill: zz plant in the foreground and snake plant in the back corner.

There's always room for a ficus (left), and a phildendron

This would just look all wrong without plants

Even the outdoor loo comes to life with plants

House plants are a must. They improve air quality, they add natural color to the home and help to fight depression. Pothos vines are nearly indestructible as are joya and mother in laws tongue ( sorry don't know the real name) .

Yep. My MIL's tongue IS indestructible. Must be all the exercise it gets!

Love my ficus :-)

Fiona i love your interior and ive started putting flowering pots inside as well. I was given a ponsettia at Christmas and it lasted for ages so ive just kept going with the idea.

The parlour palm is the most reliable palm for indoors ..

Plants add exponentially to the indoors effect and personality, as has been said many times over, however as with anything, ideally should be placed/chosen tastefully and not in a hodge-podge or messy looking fashion. Unhealthy looking plants are particularly unattractive ..

I think they are so important to give warmth to a room. I have many in the living room and studio, i would put one in the bathroom too if it wasn't too small!

Really love seeing elements of the outdoors, indoors! Here's a pretty cool and unique spin on keeping plants indoors. The mossy feature bathroom wall designed by siol and Habitat Horticulture thrives in humidity, keeping the plants stay alive whilst bringing life into an otherwise simple room.

These are some of mine. I buy them little and watch them grow.

@ Bella Ander,

After a countup I have credits, do I get that back in the grid ha-ha

All jokes aside though I fully agree, a room feels a bit lifeless without plants.

I have about two in each room of the house with about 11 I think
