Indoor Plant Zone – Dining

The dining room is a space for family and friends to gather, so choose indoor plants that spark conversation and display them artfully in key areas – and you can’t miss a table centerpiece! Orchids are a timeless classic and come in all sorts of colours, shapes and sizes. Indoor water plants make for a stunning centerpiece. In fact, most indoor plants can be propagated and grown in water, all they need is regular water change and a feed with Scotts Osmocote Pump+Feed.

STYLING TIPS

As we gather and share, the dining room fosters the intimate moments between guests over a meal. The dining table provides the perfect surface for feature plants.  A collection of interesting shapes and textures that can be discussed over a hearty meal.

PLANTS TO USE IN THE DINING ROOM

  • Peacock plant (Calathea) – With its upright growth and interesting foliage, Peacock plants can add height without needing a huge footprint.

STYLING TIP

  • Odd numbers are easier on the eye.
  • Style with smaller planters so that you can still talk to your guest over the table.
