Not everyone naturally has a green thumb, but no matter your skill level, you too can be a plant parent! Having plants is such an important aspect in a living or working space because it not only improves air quality but having something growing and living in a space really makes it come alive.
If you don’t want to commit to a large plant that you feel like you might not be successful with, try this DIY plant that will brighten up all your spaces.
First, find a plant that suits your style aesthetically but also in terms of care. A really good plant to start out with is a snake plant because you don’t need to water them so often, which is one reason why a lot of plants die. They are also great for spaces that are on the darker side because they only need indirect sunlight.
Take a pot and fill it with lava rocks for drainage. Then, take out the snake plant or whatever you decide to buy out of the nursery pot and massage it slightly so if there are any clumps of soil they come undone. Put them into the pot with more soil and you’re done!
