Orchids, bromeliads, yuccas, dracaenas and bamboos are also among the plants in demand for today's interiors. Sprouting from decorative pots, an indoor garden can be situated in an entryway, atrium, sun room or indoor spaces illuminated by skylights or artificial light. But even a plant stand or table near a window can display an array of plants pleasing to the eye. Maybe it's because the economy is growing and people have more disposable income. People just seem to love nature.
Indoor plants bring color, shape, texture and nature into a home or apartment.
Plants marry well with today's trend of blending indoor and outdoor in order to expand or enhance living areas. Recent interest in feng shui, the ancient Chinese philosophy of placement to create harmony and positive energy, also embraces the use of indoor plants. And, studies have shown that plants can improve air quality by removing toxic substances. Indoor plants mostly are embraced because they're beautiful. Spiky dracaena, exotic orchids and majestic palms add horticultural elegance to any room.
