Of course there are many people on the planet who love plants, care for the environment and choose to decorate their homes with beautiful and great looking green plants, flowers and all kinds of amazing looking living beings. Its not just that vegans care about the planet and thrive by living and caring for plants, but also others, such as people who love nature, art or just want to feel good at home or whenever they may go. Some people decorate and personalize not only their living spaces but also their office desk or their garden simply because we do all have a deep sense of caring for nature and for beauty. I do love to have plants around the house, inside the house, on the balcony and take as much care of them as possible. I grew up surrounded by indoor plants and now I continue to care for such a topic and that is why I have decided to share with you today a bit more about how I have personally decided lately to get some new plants for the apartment and how good and fulfilling it feels to be surrounded by those amazing living and breathing beings that are just so calming and peaceful to look at and to just be surrounded by.

As I have previously shared with you, in December I got some new plants for my balcony, some winter trees how I like to call them, meaning, the christmas tree, some thujas and some spruces, of course the size that fits on a balcony since I am living in an apartment right now, that I really love and in a neighborhood that I also really love and appreciate. I am super grateful for this place that I live in right now and for just being able to have my own space and to have enough space. Yes, I know, I am super into having my own space, I just love it, and I feel that I have finally found it last year, my place to call home, where I actually feel at home from the inside out. Yes, it does matter how a place looks as well, and that is just one more reason to celebrate daily my amazing space, my amazing place to call home and to feel at home. Therefore, back to this weeks topic, after getting the trees for the balcony, which I also absolutely love and adore, I thought that it would be great to get some indoor plants as well.

You can see in the pictures from this weeks posts two of them, one is called Calathea and the other one is Dieffenbachia. I actually have three pots with Calathea because I just like this plant so much, it is the one with burgundy red on the back on the leaves and it is also called prayer plant, isnt that just adorable? From Dieffenbachia I have only one for now, but I am planning on getting more of those like another 1 or 2 pots because they are also lovely to have around the house and I just love the way the leaves turn their color from the outside margins of the leaves to the interior of the leaves, they are just beautiful. I have to say I really love that they are super easy to take care of, for now, we will see how it goes further in the summer, but I am sure that it will all just go perfectly fine. I love to learn new things about plants and plant care especially for the ones grown in pots, for indoors or balcony, as there might be things to be careful about since the conditions might be a bit different for those plants then their natural climate or the way in which they would grow in nature so to speak, but still, knowledge is available for us at all times.

This is for this week, those are my indoor plants for now, of course, I am planning on getting more, as they are so great looking and just brighted up my day every day, I love living with plants, in the apartment as well as having plants on the balcony so that when it gets a bit warmer I can just enjoy a cup of tea on the balcony and witness nature in its amazing beauty as it unfolds. Plants are great indoors as air purifiers as we all know and as we have all learned in school, and not only that, but just the psychological effects of green and nature surroundings have also been shown to have a positive effect on our minds and just our moods or state of being in general. Therefore, plants are great, I do encourage you to get yourself some plants and make your house a bit greener day after day, it is really worth it and caring for them is also super easy and super fulfilling. Our favorite plants might differ from one person to another, but in general terms is good to be surrounded by plants. If you are into flowers you can also get plats that blossom as well and enjoy the flowers when their season is ongoing, otherwise just get yourself the plants that you love and you will see that it is totally worth it.
