Liven Up Your Patio Enclosure with these Potted Plants

There’s nothing quite like having your morning coffee in your own sunroom. You can sip your blend, made just to your liking, while the sun’s rays enter the windows and there’s nothing for you to do except enjoy the day. To complete the alluring picture, why not make that sunroom just that little more comfortable and add these plants to freshen up the air and brighten up your interiors:

Prayer plants (_Maranta leuconeura) _are evergreen perennials, brightening up your room throughout the year. They have mesmerising leaf markings, creating an illusion that smaller leaves were painted on them. What’s more fascinating about this plant is that their leaves may move upwards or fold at night as if they were praying.

Moth orchids (_Phalaenopsis spp.) _add a delicate beauty to your patio enclosure. They are perfect for sunrooms as they love bright light and want shelter from cold draughts. Those with white petals can add a clean softening touch to your interiors. Those with purple petals give a vibrant pop to a room.

Madagascar Dragon Trees (Dracaena marginata) can make any interior look as if they were professionally designed. Placed in a beautiful pot and grown to a good height, it presents like a sculpture-l and is a complete stunner. Placed in a bright spot and watered once a month, they are a great option for those not blessed with green thumbs or those who travel a lot.

Air Plants (Tillandsia) are now the rage in restaurants, bars and interior design expos. They look delicate because of their size and the thinness of their foliage, yet the varied direction of their leaves make them look formidable and spunky. You can place them on a table, hang them from the ceiling or use them as living wall art.

There are more plants you can try that love the Australian climate. You can stay tuned to our blog for more ideas for your patio enhancement project.
