Choose the Perfect Indoor Plant for Your Personality (2021)

Adding indoor plants to your home is an excellent way to inject both character and life into the area. You already know how difficult it is to create your own indoor greenhouse if you’ve ever attempted it. There might be something wrong with the plants you’ve been getting.
Be sure to check out this guide to indoor plants that are specifically suited to different personality types before bringing any potted plants inside.


Party-all-night, Sleep-all-day Dweller

Houseplant: Snake plants

You should fuss less over snake plants, which are ideal for people still grappling with adulthood. They do not require much light, which is great for late-sleepers who close their curtains at night, and they use smaller amounts of water than your hangover.


The Dreamer

Houseplant: Peace Lily

Aside from the name, the peace lily’s elegant white blossoms should send you into a daydream. Months can go by before these ivory flowers fade. Peace lilies are excellent air filters, and they are natural enemies of mold. A shaded spot is perfect for it, perhaps beside an old copy of the dream interpretation manual you love. Deep breathing exercises and guided meditation are enjoyed by it.


A Person With Every Airborne Allergy Imaginable

Houseplant: Spider Plant

This air purifier is also famous for its robust growth and colorful, variegated leaves, which make it one of the most popular houseplants. A spider plant will combat benzene, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, and xylene when you give it bright, indirect sunlight and water it when the top inch of soil dries out.


The Traveler

People who can’t stay in one place for very long will relate to pothos. Pothos needs to know what lies outside the pot, just as you do, wanderer. It is recommended not to water it too often (let the pot dry completely between waterings) and to give it indirect sunlight. It grows more than 10 feet long. By pruning and fertilizing regularly, Pothos enthusiasts can encourage the vine’s adventurous spirit. Pothos asks for a passport and a recent atlas to optimize the search.


The Instagrammer with Influencer Aspirations

Houseplant: Split-Leaf Philodendron

Do you have to document every sip of matcha or bite of açai parfait on social media? This is the plant for you: the split-leaf philodendron. Monstera leaves are undoubtedly the most popular foliage on Instagram right now because of their huge, perfectly cut-out shapes. It was basically designed for the Juno filter – which prefers bright, indirect sun and weekly waterings.


The Zero-Waster

Houseplant: Aloe

Aloe vera is the perfect ingredient if you like making lotion from scratch. An ideal zero-waste plant, this succulent has long leaves. Juices or balms made from aloe pulp, a jelly found in the firm skin of the plant, can be used to treat burns or irritated skin. Aloe is effective as a makeup remover because it’s free of harsh chemicals and can tone and clear the skin. The aloe loves sunlight, so be sure to put it in a west- or south-facing window. It requires watering once every three weeks, or even less.


Perfectionists of Type-A

Houseplant: Fiddle Leaf Fig Plant

For first-time parents, bringing home a fiddle leaf fig plant can be a bit like having a newborn – the plant needs a lot of attention and care until everyone settles into a routine. The fiddle fig grows best in bright, indirect sunlight, where its huge, paddle-shaped, dark green leaves form a stately, attention-grabbing piece of foliage. But this plant also has the ability to have a tantrum when unhappy with its new environment and drop its leaves. Moody fiddle figs thrive in a Type-A environment and have room to grow if you listen to its whims. Everyone else should proceed with caution.


The Optimist

Houseplant: Kalanchoe

Your presence brings a positive energy into people’s lives, coming and going on a cloud of positivity. If you’re as energetic as you are, why not have someone to share your space with? Discover the sun-loving kalanchoe, which blooms with vibrant, long-lasting flowers. Despite blooming through the summer, kalanchoes have never been bothered by the grey days of Winter, so some of their most beautiful blossoms can be seen even during the coldest winter days.
