Bring the outside in with some kitchen plants! Plants are a great way to add life into your kitchen. As well as looking beautiful, they'll purify your air and add life to your kitchen.

Drape some English Ivy, Spider plants or a String of Pearl over open shelving or up and around a window for an easy way to make your kitchen look green and full of life.

Keeping a small kitchen garden on a worktop is a great way to add a natural, fresh and multipurpose element to your kitchen - they can also be used to spice up any recipe! Keeping an aloe near your sink may come in handy in case of any burns, mint, basil and coriander are some more great candidates as they're easy to maintain; they're basically indestructible!

Adding plants as well as fresh flowers is an excellent way to bring in brighter colours into your kitchen without the commitment of a paint job.

Some easy ways of ensuring your flowers remain fresh for longer are making sure to top them up with cold water and avoiding any direct sunlight. A myriad of shapes and colours on an island or windowsill add an additional interest and make a space feel instantly brighter!

A variety of live plants and flowers can easily transform your kitchen into a greener, eco space. Play around with height by adding smaller plants on high spaces like shelves and placing larger foliage like a Monstera Cheese plant or a Rubber plant on the floor in emptier corners that “just need something”. All in all, plants are a cost efficient way of updating a space and bringing in colour to your kitchen.
