Fool-proof indoor plants

Indoor plants are making a huge comeback. Florist Natasha Shotton and landscape gardener Kate Le Page, who own and run Mornington nursery Plantsago, gave us a rundown of their favourite indoor plants to keep in your home and office.

Golden Barrel Cactus

“This is great for indoors and outdoors. It’s a desert plant, so it needs plenty of light and a little water now and then.”

á Monstera deliciosa

“A blast from the past, this plant was big in the 1970s and it’s so popular at the moment. Keep this one in filtered light and keep slightly damp, but not wet.”

Euphorbia Cactus

“Great for office spaces, or in a pot outdoors. Keep dry with plenty of sunlight.”

Bromeliad

“These grow long-lasting pink flowers and are best kept indoors. Keep damp though not wet with bright filtered light.”
