Perfect Pairs: Choosing a Plant and Pot to Suit Your Style
A plant is a gift of life, growth, breath, and renewal. We all deserve a little more plant love in our lives; practice a little botanical self care by choosing just the right plant and pot to suit your personal style and the environment of your home.
STEP ONE: Pick a Pot
What’s your style? Earthy? Classic? Glam? From our wide selection of pottery, you can have fun choosing a texture, shape, and finish to complement any look.

STEP TWO: Pick a Plant
This part’s a bit trickier: You’ll want to help your new plant babies succeed by assessing the light conditions of your home or workplace. Consider the exact spot where you plant to put your plant. Sun-drenched kitchen? Cozy living room? Dim cubicle? We’ve got plant suggestions for the whole spectrum.
BRIGHT LIGHT
With a bright room, you’re in luck! Almost anything will grow in bright indirect light: succulents and cactus, some sun-loving bromeliads, crotons, and peperomias, just to name a few.
MEDIUM LIGHT
Many interiors fit in this category, especially those that get strong sunlight in the morning or afternoon but not all day. Try a ficus, fittonia (nerve plant), philodendron, or pothos. Click over here for some more suggestions for plants that will thrive in medium bright light.
LOWER LIGHT
Luckily there are lots of plants that are perfectly happy in lower light conditions. Sanseverias are a great choice, especially for plant gifts, because they’re so easy to care for, needing very little water and attention. Ferns, peace lilies, and Chinese evergreens are also excellent for bringing green lushness into a not-so-bright space. Check out some more suggestions for plants that will tolerate low light here.
We’ve got so many choices for all light conditions, and our expert staff is here to help you pick just the right plants for your space.
