Usneoides (air plant)
650 MDL
Spanish moss, also commonly known as Old Man’s Beard, is a tropical evergreen epiphytic perennial native to tropical America. Its latin name is Tillandsia usneoides. The name ‘Spanish Moss’ is a misnomer as this plant is neither Spanish nor a moss. It is a bromeliad, and the name has nothing to do with where it comes from. The beauty, non-toxicity and easy care of air plants are attracting more and more people to start their collections.
Since it likes relatively humid conditions, growing it in a light, bright bathroom or kitchen can be ideal – but Spanish moss can also thrive in other parts of your home as long as you make sure it gets the humidity and moisture it needs. When watering, ensure that water does not collect between the leaves, as this can cause them to rot. It is a good idea to tilt the plant slightly downwards or shake it gently after watering to avoid waterlogging.
The plant does not require a pot as it does not need soil. However, you can choose a pot for decorative purposes or for another plant.

Bonsai trees are a fascinating art form that combines Asian aesthetics and feng shui in the homes of those who choose to care for them.
Translated, ‘bonsai’ means ‘planted in a bowl’. Bonsai is a true philosophy of life, a hobby that brings peace of mind and helps us to cope with everyday stress. Caring for a single tree in a pot is a kind of small-scale gardening.
Pruning is also important to keep bonsai trees small and in perfect shape. Maintenance pruning strengthens the bonsai and encourages new branch growth.

English ivy (Hedera helix variegata) is one of the most common ivy species and the most widely grown. It is very easy to grow, both in pots and as an ornamental outdoor plant. You’ve probably noticed it on the outside of buildings and houses that look like entrances to a secret botanical world.
Potted ivy requires much less water. Before watering, check the consistency of the substrate, which should be loose but dry on the surface. Be careful not to overwater. For optimal lighting, position the plant near a window to ensure it receives abundant light without direct exposure. Poor lighting can reduce the number of leaves and cause them to discolour.
Indoors, it can be placed on a shelf or taller plant stand to allow it to create that eye-catching cascade of creamy white variegated green leaves. It tends to grow vigorously, providing quick results for those who want to transform their room or garden in a short space of time.

The Boston fern is one of the easiest ferns to care for, which has made it a popular houseplant for decades. It is not difficult to look after, but it does require some special care. The most important thing is to give it the ideal growing conditions: standard room temperature (13-24°C), plenty of humidity and indirect light. If the humidity is too low, the leaves will turn yellow. Another important aspect is the soil. It must be kept moist as one of the main reasons why the plant may not survive is dry soil.
A popular display is a hanging basket. Arranged in this way, the leaves of the plant will arch towards the basket, giving the appearance of floating in the air. Boston ferns are not considered toxic to pets or children. In a pot or hanging from a modern macrame hanger, the Boston Fern is a wonderful addition to the kitchen or bathroom.
