In the world of plant enthusiasts, there’s a wise saying: to fully enjoy your urban jungle during winter, you need to invest time and resources into your plants during the summer. The warm months offer a perfect opportunity to think, plan, and set goals for the colder season ahead. So, our question is: what green plans do you have for this summer?

#1. ONE PLANT DOES NOT MAKE AN URBAN JUNGLE

If you’ve been thinking of turning your living space into a botanical paradise that will last until winter, we recommend investing now in some medium-sized plants that will grow big and bushy by winter. Some examples are Monstera Deliciosa, Ficus Alii, Scindapsus, Pilea, Calathea and Philodendron Xanadu. You can find any of them in our catalogue. After you have chosen your plants, you can take care of their strategic positioning, to give life to the space where you live. For example, a lively cactus or any succulent plant on the bookshelves, a Monstera next to the TV or a Musa Banana in the living room. If you have a large plant, make it the centre of attention. Large ficus, yucca, and palm can be used as stand-alone plants. Give them a nice pot and place them in a prominent place.

#2. GREEN, LOTS OF GREEN

Aiming for as much greenery as possible is a fantastic #plantgoal. Achieving this can significantly boost your well-being and help maintain a refreshing atmosphere throughout the winter. For a green redesign, consider using macramé hangers to suspend plants and grouping them to create tranquil zones within your rooms. Opt for pots that complement each other and experiment with varying heights by placing plants on vintage chairs or stands. To create an urban jungle feel in your space, simply fill it with an abundance of plants. Sometimes, a striking Monstera or a graceful Palm Tree is all it takes.

#3. PERFECT TIME FOR PROPAGATION

By pursuing this #plantgoal, you not only bring joy to your friends and family but also contribute to a greener planet. Consider giving plant cuttings as gifts for birthdays, parties, or dinner gatherings—it’s a sustainable gift and thoughtful gesture. Summer is the ideal time for propagation, as plants grow more vigorously during this season. It’s one of the easiest propagation methods: simply place the cuttings in a glass of water to encourage root formation or plant them directly in the soil. This way, you can effortlessly cultivate a thriving green oasis in your home that will flourish even in winter.

#4. RENEW YOUR COLLECTION OF FLORAL SOUL PLANTS

You can experiment with new and exotic specimens. With this #plantgoal you acquire more plants, but also more experience.
