I have the complete opposite of a green thumb…

So many great ideas! I’ve had houseplants for as long as I’ve had my own place. Fewer today but they are a necessity in a house (IMO) and displaying them beautifully is important.
I love IKEA faux plants because then I can have greenery in the house but not worry about under-watering. Mine never get over-watered LOL
