Deeply Rooted

Why I love houseplants in my outdoor space.

Did you know that houseplants love summer as much as you do? Several houseplants can't take full sun exposure all day, but if you have a spot that gets some morning sun, these plants could thrive! Bring a lush, tropical look to your patio garden.

Monstera Adansonii - aka Swiss Cheese Plant

Cousin of the monstera deliciosa, the Monstera Adansonii is a very unique, beginner friendly vining houseplant. It is nicknamed the “Swiss cheese plant” for its elongated perforated leaves with big holes. This interesting plant adds character and personality to any garden space while requiring minimal attention to thrive. 

Marble Queen Pothos

Pothos plants are one of the most popular types of houseplants because they're fast-growing, hearty, and easy to care for. This variety is referred to as 'Marble Queen' thanks to the swirls of deep greens and white on the plant's teardrop-shaped leaves. Its quick-growing vines will compliment herbs and flowering annuals.; a great, low maintenance choice for beginners.
