18 Plant Therapy: Beware the Whitefly!
This weekend, I stopped in Santa Cruz to enjoy a perfect beach day and to also stop by a garden shop I'd been meaning to visit for some time now — DIG Gardens. DIG (which stands for Design, Interior, Garden) cultivates a unique mix of chic style and practical products. You can buy baby chicks here for your urban chicken coop, or you can pick up one of the cool concrete and metal succulent Read more
I'm excited to share a post from Stylelist Home. Keep reading to learn everything you need to know for caring for orchids. They're not as hard as you might imagine! I love the elegance and the exotic feel of an orchid, but every time one winds up in my care, I find myself with a dead orchid after a short while. I do well with my other houseplants and like to think I have a green thumb. Are Read more

Keeping houseplants inside your home has a host of benefits: they clean the air, brighten up your décor, and can even elevate your mood. But not every home is equipped with the right space for indoor plants, nor does every inhabitant love the look of flower pots scattered around the house. Enter Swedish furniture company Offecct, whose Oasis collection seamlessly melds form with function. Read more
For years, my experience with orchids was spotty at best. Oftentimes they died shortly after blooming, and I never had any that rebloomed. But three years ago I was given an orchid that has, since that time, rebloomed eight times, and just this past week, another orchid displayed three new flowers. When I met with gardening expert Flora Grubb last week, she told me that the real secret to orchids Read more
The Hand That Rocks the Cradle may have ruined greenhouses for some, but I still adore them. Unfortunately my finances and space limitations are keeping me from propping my own conservatory up, so I've found something else to satiate my greenhouse appetite — itty bitty Green Houses ($12-26) from My House Party. The miniature structures are hand-crafted from wood and treated with an Read more
Yesterday, I inspired you with some cool terrariums. Today, I'm back with some Etsy finds that will help you add a bit of green to your Winter home. Better yet, the plants included in this post are all very easy to care for! Read more
There are plenty of reasons to keep houseplants healthy and prolific in your home, including improved air quality. But if you're looking for modern planters to complement your modern home, it's often hard to find a pot that's not terra cotta, stamped, or a little too organic-looking. Luckily, there are more and more pots on the market now that will fit in with your more streamlined decor. One of Read more
If your dining room isn't lacking for light, why not take this tip from the pages of Skona Hem and replace a chandelier with a hanging plant? To get the look, use a Victorian plant stand, or search for a round hanging pot rack that can be augmented with hanging pots. Try using these Ikea Asker pots ($6) for your hanging plants. You can simply hook them on the pot rack hooks, and let them drape Read more
