SO YOU THINK YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A HOUSEPLANT

A benefit of having spent more time at home than you would have liked this year is, well, the chance to have spent more time at home. It’s been an opportunity to fashion your living space into something perfect. Maybe you found yourself tablescaping for the first time in your life – or even mantelscaping if you’re lucky enough to live in a period property with a fireplace. One thing you may also have realised is that a home resplendent in (living) houseplants is bound to be a happy one.

Find out what your favourite says about you – and where to buy it online – below.

THE GORGEOUS AMBIVERT

BEGONIA MACULATA, £22 AT CANOPY PLANTS

When you walk into a room – or when people walk into your room – everyone notices you. That said, you like to have it both ways when it comes to attention: you’re as happy on the sidelines as you are in the spotlight.

THE BREATH OF FRESH AIR

DRACAENA SANDERIANA, £9.99 AT PRIMROSE

Your positivity is contagious – even NASA cites you as one of the best at ‘purifying the air’. It’s no wonder your alias is ‘lucky bamboo’.

THE STALWART

AGLAONEMA CUTLAS, £17.50 AT HOUSE OF PLANTS

You are respected for being both tough and low maintenance, but – perhaps unsurprisingly – have little interest in animals or children.

THE SENSUAL SKINCARE FANATIC

ALOE VERA, £8.95 AT THE NUNHEAD GARDENER

In spite of your hardy appearance, you’re very into skincare. You also know all the words to ‘WAP’, but that’s another matter.
