Apartment Living

Apartment living gives renters an affordable means of enjoying the benefits of living in a bustling city. Studies reveal that incorporating carefully curated indoor plants into a renter’s apartment can decrease stress while simultaneously purifying the air.

You might think that you require a huge apartment space for growing houseplants. However, this isn’t true. Like our homes, houseplants differ in size and shapes. However, those who reside in apartments need careful consideration when choosing the right apartment plants. Fortunately, there’s a range of ideal apartment plants worth considering.

Snake Plants

These plants are popular among apartment dwellers because they can withstand various environments. You’ll discover that the low-fuss plants are ideal for experienced plant growers as well as beginners. Furthermore, they’re broadly accessible at garden stores year-round.

It’s worth noting that typical snake plants don’t need much light. Although they can flourish in sunlight, they can equally survive in the absence of light. You could easily overwater the plants, so you want to establish a suitable watering schedule, for instance, twice monthly is sufficient.

Aloe Vera

The tiny indoor plant features plump leaves and is renowned for its healing properties. Specifically, the gel helps in soothing cuts and burns. These succulents are among the easiest in terms of care. Moreover, the fun, distinct-looking plants add style to small-space living and are useful in first aid and skin care as they grow.

You’ll notice the plant produces offshoots or pups when it’s healthy. You can replant the removable pups to begin a new aloe plant. When caring for the plant, you want to avoid recurrent watering and ensure you decrease the frequency of watering throughout winter. Also, you want to make sure you allow the soil to dry completely between watering.

Chinese Evergreen

The sturdy tiny plants don’t require light because they flourish in low-light conditions. You want to avoid positioning them in direct sunlight because of possible damage. Bear in mind that they require little water, so you can leave the pot dry for numerous days before watering again.

You can begin with 3-5 days and observe the plant’s response. Although the plant’s stunning green leaves will spruce up your apartment, ensure your unit is above 60 degrees if you have this plant.

Spider Plant

The plant is a favorite among apartment dwellers since it can fit in most spaces due to its compact nature. The pet-friendly plant can thrive in a range of light conditions and it’s easy to propagate it from pups, making it easy to include it in your plant collection.

Peace Lily

The plant is one of the easiest to grow in an apartment. It features white blooms and dark leaves, giving off a sense of relaxation while decreasing airborne toxins. It’s worth noting that dust can pile up fast since the plant has broad leaves. Use a damp cloth to dust the leaves or simply run water over the plant to maintain cleanliness.

The low-maintenance plant flourishes in the shade and requires low humidity to maintain moist soil. A common mistake plant owners make is overwatering the plant; beware that this mistake could result in root decay.

Final Thoughts

Plants add ambiance to an apartment and function as a distinct natural décor to make a unit feel cozier. Beyond looking attractive, plants equally offer remarkable health benefits. With their numerous benefits, it’s no wonder numerous apartment dwellers include some greenery in their units. If you’re wondering which plants to include in your unit, consider this list.
