If you just decorated your bedroom but you still feel that
something is missing from the decor, try one or two houseplants. Houseplants
not only complement the overall design of your bedroom but they improve your mood,
especially if you use the bedroom as a home office occasionally. If your
bedroom gets a lot of natural sunlight during the day, then houseplants would
go well in the bedroom. You will need to place the plant near the window since
this is where the sun shines the most in a room. Here are some ideal plants for
the bedroom.
Lavender
Lavender is a great bedroom plant not just because of its'
lively purplish color but also because it promotes relaxation from the day's
stresses. Lavender particularly works well if your bedroom's walls are a light
purple and white or beige.
Poinsettias
Poinsettias are generally red or a light pink and green, and
they're usually brought in the home during the Christmas season. But you don't
have to wait until December to put poinettias in your bedroom because they
match with most bedroom design themes at any time of the year. These plants are
also non-toxic and they look amazing.
Aloe Vera
Why not use a bedroom plant that also has medicinal
qualities? Aloe vera is just that kind of plant and it is not hard to maintain.
In addition to this, aloe vera plants look graceful and beautiful and they
complement the bedroom design well. You can take some of the sap from some of
the aloe vera leaves and use it to treat skin conditions.
Bamboo Palm
Bamboo palm adds a natural and earthy look to your bedroom
and it also grows quite tall so you want to place this plant in a part of the
bedroom that is not too close to the bed or dresser. Bamboo is also an eco
friendly house plant that gets rid of the toxins in the air.
Cacti
Cacti are beautiful to look at and they have spiky spines.
You can purchase a traditional green cactus plant or you can buy one that is in
colors red, orange or yellow if it is during the fall months. The benefit of a
cactus plant is that you don't need to add a lot of water to it and natural
sunlight is the best light for this plant.
Peace Lilies
Peace lilies are great for bedrooms because they do not
require much light and when cared for properly, these plants last for months or
even years. The white petals from this plant can be used to decorate the front
of the bed on a romantic evening with your spouse.
Conclusion
Having indoor plants in the bedroom adds a touch of nature
to the room without it appearing too much like an indoor forest. If you've
never had indoor plants in your bedroom, talk with the salesperson at the
garden store so you can get pointers.
