Plants are popular roommates, whether for decorative reasons or to improve the indoor climate. However, the flower pots require sufficient space, which not every room has. A space-saving solution is needed.
Whether in the apartment or on the balcony, in the garden or on the terrace: houseplants can be found in millions of households. They are decorative and create a cozy atmosphere in every room. On top of that, they have a practical use by cleaning the air and producing oxygen. So there is actually no reason to do without the green roommates – unless you simply don’t have enough space. Small rooms, a lack of window sills and a lack of light sources make it difficult to buy new houseplants. Plant stands can be used to solve the problem.
Plant stands in comparison: These models are available
The name says it all: A plant stand is usually made of wood, rattan, metal or plastic and has several advantages – it offers more space for one or more houseplants and puts them in a better light (in the truest sense of the word). Thanks to the exposed position, the green roommates soak up more sun, especially in dark rooms, and they don’t collect as much dust on the floor. Which model is right for you depends on the size of your apartment and the number of plants you have. Below we’ll introduce you to a few different plant stands.
1. Plant Stand Mid-Century Modern Style
This plant stand made of real, oiled beech wood is handmade in Stuttgart and is available in two colors: ( and ). It is 25 centimeters high, 14 centimeters wide and deep – making it ideal for small houseplants. You can get even more inspiration at .
2. Standing plant shelf with coasters
This offers space for several green roommates : The built-in steps at different heights can accommodate at least seven medium to large flower pots – or even more if you place two small flower pots (for example succulents) next to each other.
3. Staircase plant stand with three steps
This With its three steps (which can be moved individually), it is reminiscent of a staircase. The metal surface was specially modified to make it look used and give it a vintage feel. There is room for several houseplants on the lattices.
4. Plant stand with rust-proof coating
This iron plant stand is also made of metal: with a load capacity of up to 100 kilograms, large and heavy plants can be accommodated on it. Thanks to the rust-proof coating, the model is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. The stand is available in two colors: and .
5. Corner plant shelf with three shelves
If you want to place your plant stand in the corner, we recommend a corner shelf – for example from Ikea: made of solid acacia has three floors of different sizes, so that (purely theoretically) at least one small, one medium and one large houseplant can fit on it.
