For all things bathroom related, Reece are your go-to. They’ve set out the ultimate guide on how to successfully add some greenery into your bathrooms. For anyone plant obsessed, keep reading!

Finding the one

There are plants that LOVE humidity and are ideal for a bathroom location. Knowing which plants thrive in each location makes your selections straightforward and fool-proof. Reece recommends incorporating Monstera and Begonia into your bathroom space. These plants thrive in damp, warm temperatures making them easy to care for.  If natural light isn’t a problem in your bathroom, you can’t go past Peace Lily.

Less is more

As any plant mum can tell you, once you start adding indoor plants, it can be hard to stop. With your bathroom space, you don’t need a ‘full jungle’ to create a relaxing atmosphere. Keeping it simple can be best, with Reece recommending the addition of a plant on the windowsill or the corner of the basin. You’ll be surprised the difference a single plant can make!

 

Basic care

Natural light is one of the biggest hurdles for bathroom plants. Before you choose your plants, assess your natural light situation. If the bathroom is more on the dark side, opt for plants such as Devils Ivy or Heartleaf Philodendron.

Too much love can kill plants, especially in bathroom areas. As the bathroom is more humid than the rest of the house, the plants can absorb more water. A good rule of thumb is to wait for the top inch of soil to feel completely dry before watering again.

Give this a try and you’d be surprised just how much difference plants will make to the area!
