When you buy a floral arrangement or potted plant at your local florist, you might decide you want to place it on your dining table, in a bay window, or in another main area of your home. It may be valuable, however, to consider some other locations that can benefit from flowers and plants. One spot that people may overlook is their bathroom. Spacious master bathrooms, small powder rooms, and virtually everything in between can make for a good location for plant life. Consider the following reasons why adding flowers or plants to your bathroom can work well, and then visit a local florist to buy something that catches your eye.
Addition Of Color
People often decorate their bathrooms with subtle colors, especially when compared to other rooms throughout the home. For example, plain hues, such as white, off-white, and gray, might dominate the space. While these colors can give a bathroom a clean, spacious feel, the space may also feel a little bland. The addition of a bouquet of flowers or a potted plant can instantly add an instant splash of color to the bathroom. Cut flowers with colorful blooms, whether you choose roses, tulips, or orchids, will be able to add a high degree of color. However, even a potted plant that doesn't have flowers can augment the room with a fresh burst of green.
More Visual Softness
In many peoples' homes, the bathroom is one room that often lacks visual softness. Plenty of hard surfaces and an abundance of straight lines can often combine to make this room feel a little harsh. Adding one or more floral arrangements or potted plants to a bathroom can help to immediately provide a lot of visual softness. The flowing curves of these natural elements, as well as the fact that the flowers and blooms themselves are soft, can change the look of the bathroom into a space that feels softer and perhaps cozier.
Minimal Upkeep
Adding potted plants to your bathroom can be a good idea because certain plants will require minimal upkeep in this part of your home. If you enjoy potted plants, but sometimes forget to water them regularly, think about buying one for your bathroom. Some plants will keep a healthy level of moistness just because of the level of humidity in this room after someone in your home takes a shower. Talk to your florist about what potted plants are best placed in the bathroom. They will be able to tell you that there are several plants suitable for this area, including the golden porthos and the calathea rattlesnake lancifolia.
