Plant‑Lady Revolution: Houseplants Are the New Cat‑Ladies
It’s no secret that in the chic corners of Pinterest and Instagram, every stylish home features a plant. From towering monstera to miniature succulents, the jungle vibe is taking over city living.
The “Jungalow” Trend
The word jungalow is a playful mash‑up of “jungle” and “bungalow.” It’s a delightful way to bring life and texture to empty rooms, corners, and even those cramped apartments that never once had a window.
4 Quick Tips From the Green Gurus
- Know the Sun: Some plants thrive in direct light while others prefer shade. Learn your squad’s preferences before you put them on a windowsill.
- Travel‑Friendly Greens: For jet‑setters, choose low‑maintenance plants that don’t need daily watering. Your passport can be the only thing that gets damp.
- Air‑Plants Are a Win: Tillandsia don’t need soil. Hang them from the ceiling – it saves space and eliminates the mess of damp pots.
- Trial, Error, Curiosity: A little experimentation keeps the plants lively. Treat each misstep as a lesson, not a failure.
