Nowadays you can no longer gain weight with that one measly plant in the windowsill. And two small succulents on a shelf are no longer sufficient either. Those who want to create a stylish interior nowadays go for a lot of green. Plants in the home are a trend and with good reason. There are many advantages and we have listed them here.
Plants not only provide atmosphere, they also ensure a healthy indoor climate. Plants purify the air and convert nasty substances into healthy oxygen. Plants also offer good acoustics. Plants with large leaves in particular absorb sound. It simply calms down a room. They already do this because of their color, because green is known for calming and reducing stress. And then they also ensure the correct humidity in a room, which reduces the risk of a cold. The air remains very healthy and does not become too dry.
Indoor plants provide atmosphere and a good feeling
That is a wide range of benefits of green plants, but that is not the only reason why people choose an interior full of plants. The atmosphere and the good feeling often predominate. Indoor plants are a welcome addition to the interior in your own home and if you are looking for other homes? Houseplants even help sell your home faster. Because who doesn’t fall in love with such a stylish interior that immediately gives a good feeling?
We cannot live without nature around us
Another aspect why plants do so well is that we have a strong desire for nature. That need is actually growing. Now that we have been shackled at home for a long time and only go outside for a walk or bike ride, we have come to appreciate nature more and more. We are becoming increasingly aware of the fact that we cannot do without it and must be careful with it. This affects us not only through nature documentaries by the famous David Attenborough, such as A Life On Our Planet, but also in miniature in our own backyard and in our interior. Nature matters.
When we bring plants into our home, we have to take good care of them and that unconsciously plays a role in caring for our environment. It puts us on the trail of nature and we appreciate it when the plant grows and blooms thanks to good care. That may sound exaggerated, but that’s how it works in our brain. Who does not honor the small …
Let children take care of their own plant
It also plays a role in our children’s lives. If they become aware of the value of that nature, they are less likely to turn their back on it. Taking care of plants in the garden or in our house, it all plays a role in ‘knowing’ that we have to take good care of nature. It is therefore not surprising to give them the responsibility for taking care of a plant in their own room.
All the more reason to choose indoor plants
Which plants are those? Those who adhere to the seventies will opt for sansevierias in his or her interior. The pancake plant is a hit right now and the banana plant is doing well too. Whichever plant you choose, large or small, standing or hanging, they provide atmosphere, and in your interior you also create a good portion of fresh and pure air. Every reason to to opt for indoor plants.
