Am pleasantly surprised at how well...

This Ficus is one of the most undemanding plants we have in our range. Whilst it's rich glossy leaves are native to tropical Africa - it will tolerate all levels of light or lack of light. An ideal plant for a slightly, neglectful plant-parent - or if you're frequently away for a few weeks at a time. Coping well with temperature changes too, this truly is a great all-rounder.

One of the most robust Calathea varieties, this is a great first choice for a beginner. Vivid, bright lime-green leaves with a deeper dash of green that is reminiscent of animal print - hence the name - will stand proud and pack a visual punch with its bountiful foliage. The prayer plant is aptly known due to the movement of the leaves dependant on the lighting and time of day. You may even hear it move! Decorative pot not included.

If you're looking for a striking flowering plant that shows colour for a long period, then look no further. A strikingly stunning, beautiful bromeliad known for its beautifully vivid green arching leaves and tall central vibrant flower. Originating in Central and South America, the Guzmania brings a wonderfully exotic aura to its environment and gently compliments everything around it.
