1. CACTUS.

Add some texture to your space with a few cacti. Since they don’t need much water, these plants are fairly low maintenanc­e. Just be careful not to prick yourself—or perhaps use these plants in your garden instead of inside.

2. GRAPEVINE.

Give your home a dramatic touch by incorporat­ing grapevine branches. Try weaving them together with a string of lights for a magical effect.

3. OLIVE BRANCH.

This type of greenery is famously known for symbolizin­g peace and friendship. Arrange a few branches in a vase to create a welcoming centerpiec­e.

4. PALM TREE.

Accentuate your living space with something exotic. Since there are various kinds of palm trees, make sure to choose one that is right for your climate.

5. FERN.

Hang your ferns in baskets from the ceiling or put them in planters on the floor. Either way, you’ll love that they drape well and add a fresh feeling to your home.
