We will be telling you about some different types of tropical plants that will help you create your own lush indoor jungle. Each one is super pretty and also pretty easy to take care of as long as you follow a few tips. So let's check them out!

Chinese evergreen

This plant has thick, glossy leaves ranging in color from green to red to yellow and can be found at your local flower shops in Spring Hill TN. Chinese evergreen loves humidity so it's perfect for bathrooms. Note that you need to keep its soil moist but not soggy. Just prune off any dead or diseased leaves and enjoy its beautiful foliage all year long. The best thing is-you may even get pink or white flowers too!

Peace lily

With its tall white blooms and dark green leaves, peace lilies look stunning alone or mixed in with other plants. Although the flowers only last around two weeks, you will get new blooms regularly if cared for properly. Make sure the soil stays damp by watering it when the top inch dries out. Peace lilies release oxygen at night, so they're excellent room air cleaners too. If you want they also make great tropical flower arrangements!

Philodendron

This vine-like plant comes in varieties with heart-shaped, diamond, or arrowhead leaves. Philodendrons grow quickly and are very low maintenance. Give them plenty of indirect sunlight and water whenever the topsoil becomes dry. You can let the vines cascade down from hanging baskets or place them on shelves for that wild, jungle-like appeal.

Orchids

With so many types of exotic orchids to choose from, you're sure to find one to suit your style. Pick one with colorful blooms that last months rather than weeks for long-lasting beauty. Keep orchids in a warm, bright space and water just enough to prevent shriveling. But you have to make sure the pot has holes for drainage.

Anthuriums

Commonly called flamingo flowers, anthuriums have heart-shaped leaves and waxy red, pink, or white blooms. For low-light conditions, choose a darker variety from a local florist in South Franklin TN. These plants thrive in humid locations like bathrooms and make great tropical flower centerpieces. Same as the others, water whenever the topsoil feels dry, keeping the potting mix constantly moist. Fertilize monthly in the growing season for healthy growth.

English ivy

English Ivy will grow all over the place if you let it! It thrives in low to medium light conditions and average household temperatures. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. English Ivy is pet-friendly and toxin-free. Let it spill over shelves and climb up poles for that jungle vine look.

Bird of Paradise

These tropical flower plants grow tall stalks topped with amazing bright orange, red, and yellow blooms. The blooms resemble a bird taking flight hence the name. Bird of Paradise plants need warmth, humidity, and sunlight to flower at their best. You only need to water them when the top inch of soil dries out. This plant really stands out and adds a wild, tropical pop of color.
