Beyond Green Foliage

When it comes to indoor plant decor, the lush green of houseplants can sometimes create a monochromatic effect that feels a bit flat. To achieve a more dynamic and layered look in your space, consider diversifying your plant palette and choosing pots that add a splash of colour. Here’s how to break away from a sea of green and create a more visually engaging plant corner:
