you see, we tried the local nurseries and garden shops around our home and when we asked them to show us some "modern and unique" house plants...they looked at us kind of funny. I don't know....is that a silly question?? I mean, some plants just make you want to go over and touch them to see if they are real...and that's what we wanted!
So, as soon as we walked into this modern plant palace I knew we'd find JUST what we wanted. I mean their philosophy is as plain as day on the front of their homepage "Sprout Home believes that a modern aesthetic can live in the home and also in the garden..."
We picked up a few gems for our house...my favorite being these freak of nature "air plants" or tillandsias. You can read more about them here...but they are MY kind of plant...no soil needed! They live off the moisture in the air and look super in our house. We also picked up a lipstick plant...the leaves look like they are woven together...have you ever seen anything like this?
These are sitting on our counter that opens from the kitchen to the great room.

Go Air Plants, they are so fun and easy. The flowers on the lipstick rasta plant will be a treat for you.
