Her home's dining room table, below, is enhanced by a Phalaenopsis or moth orchid. An atrium area inside the home of Kathy and Kent Hart of Davis is a lush backdrop to the living room.
Indoor plants complement the waterfall and pond.
The fanlike leaves of the licuala palm attract attention in any setting. A bromeliad and neathebella palm are among the plants growing in the Harts' indoor entry garden. No longer merely greenish, vegetative matter to offset white walls and beige sofas, indoor plants have been rediscovered as bold design elements of striking beauty. Silk just doesn't do it for me. Live plants give an area a finished look.
