The Two House Plants I always use when Staging a Home to Sell

I’m going to let you in on a little designing secret: the two house plants I LOVE to decorate and stage with. In fact these two plants travel with me to multiple homes … let me explain why!!!

My House Plants for Staging

1. The Money Tree

This was a last minute necessity purchase.  The space was scheduled to be photographed and I was on the hunt for a medium sized plant to add interest and height to a corner.  There was no method to my selection as far as the name and truthfully, I was not familiar with this type of plant at all.  Fortunately, when I stopped by the local Home Depot store I came across this plant and it fit the bill.

2. the Palm Tree

This palm is a great example of how you can elevate the impact of greenery with the choice of container.  On it’s own this plant was just a bit on the short side.  When I originally brought it into the home it lacked the impact I was looking for.  By bringing in the footed basket the additional height created the vertical interest I was looking for and was a great balance to this sunroom.

Basket Planters

When picking out house plants for staging,  I also love to use woven baskets as my planters. Mine is from Ikea but I found these three in natural textures I love as well!!!
