Unique Indoor Plant Varieties
Sometimes you need more than standard greens. Here is a look at some of the interesting, lesser-known plants we currently keep in our studio.
This is a Fittonia, or Nerve Plant, known for its striking leaf patterns. Potted in a simple white ceramic pot, it's a small but captivating plant for a desk or shelf.
The Cryptanthus, or Earth Star, is a type of bromeliad with a unique, flat rosette of patterned leaves. It's a low-growing plant that adds interesting texture to any plant collection.
About Additional Plant Varieties
These plants, like the Fittonia and Cryptanthus, add texture to your space that standard leafy greens often miss. While they are beautiful, they do require specific light and moisture levels to stay healthy. If you are picking these for your desk or a bookshelf, let us know your space's lighting conditions so we can suggest the right potting and maintenance routine for you.
When we bring in plants like the Nerve Plant (Fittonia) or Earth Star (Cryptanthus), we look for visual interest that goes beyond standard foliage. These plants are ideal for adding color and texture to office desks, side tables, or bookshelves.
Caring for Your Unique Varieties
Unlike resilient desk staples like ZZ plants or Sansevieria, these varieties appreciate a little more attention. Fittonia, for instance, thrives in higher humidity and prefers its soil to remain lightly moist. If the leaves droop slightly, it is usually a signal that it needs water. Cryptanthus (Earth Star) is perfect for terrariums or pots where you want that flat, rosette shape to pop against other greenery.
Why Choose These?
- Textural Contrast: Their leaf patterns are intricate, making them great for smaller spaces where you want one plant to hold the attention.
- Indoor Friendly: We have acclimated these to indoor conditions so they adjust well to air-conditioned offices or home corners with bright, indirect light.
- Styling: Because they stay relatively compact, they are easy to rotate with your seasonal decor.
If you are unsure whether these will thrive in your specific light conditions, drop by our HSR Layout studio. We can help you pick the right pot and spot to ensure they last.
