“Because of how many people are pretty new to having and caring for houseplants, I really think 2021 is going to be a year where tried-and-true favorites trend—be it the snake plant, pothos, or ZZ plant.” Stock up on these and other easy-to-care-for varieties. Set this sturdy plant in a spot with bright, indirect light, then let it do its thing. Indoors, this statement plant can grow six to eight feet in height. One eye-catching plant that maximizes real estate: the Alocasia polly. “Alocasias have huge leaves that grow in different shapes and color variations. Most importantly, their leaves can grow pretty large, thus giving the effect of a bigger plant that can grow in a relatively smaller pot. Alocasia will be the ‘It-Plant’ in 2021!” she predicts. “We love this cactus and so do our customers! Every time we get it back in stock, it’s sold out within a week,” says Christan Summers, CEO and co-founder of Tula. “It has very long, white, soft, hairlike spines. The flowers are bright red blooms. People love it as it’s a perfect hanging or shelf plant in a spot with lots of sun.” Looking for a conversation piece to add to your indoor garden? Set this plant on a sunny shelf, and let it steal the spotlight.
