Ferns, palms, delicious monsters, philodendrons and aspidistra were prized parlour plants.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>These vintage plants are not out of place in today\u2019s homes and for good reason; they are showy yet easy to care for and long lasting. If you plant to invest in indoor plants, you couldn\u2019t do better than these.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s interesting is that plants only became \u2018domesticated\u2019 once Victorian homes became lighter, warmer and airier, the kind of conditions that suit indoor plants.<\/p>\n<p>According to the influential magazine \u2018Architectural Digest,\u2019 the use of indoor plants is closely related to social issues and trends. They have tracked the popularity of indoor plants decade by decade for the past 80 years and it makes interesting reading.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, in the 1940\u2019s when women went to work while men went to war, plants like African violets, Philodendron scandens and Golden Pothos were used to brighten office desks and trail from windowsills.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Philodendron scandens<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1297731\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1297731\" style=\"width: 420px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-1297731\" src=\"https:\/\/caxtondigital.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/110\/2024\/07\/Alice-Coetzee-12-07-2024-gardening-indoor-plants-photo-2-420x280.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"420\" height=\"280\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1297731\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Philodendron scandens<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This variegated yellow and green trailing plant is still one of the best plants for hanging baskets. It\u2019s also known as the sweetheart plant for its heart-shaped leaves. Plants are often sold growing up a support but can also trail downwards from a hanging basket. They grow in medium light and like moist soil that drains well. Trimming in summer triggers growth and keeps the plant fuller and leafier.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Exotic \u201850\u2019s<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the 1950\u2019s tropical bromeliads and philodendrons were trendy, inspired by the desire for exotic destinations as an escape from the post war depression and shortages. Even today, these sculptural plants are elegant enough to match most modern interiors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bromeliads\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1297737\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1297737\" style=\"width: 420px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-1297737\" src=\"https:\/\/caxtondigital.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/110\/2024\/07\/LNN-Featured-Image-81-420x253.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"420\" height=\"253\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1297737\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bromeliads<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The better known and cultivated bromeliads include Guzmania, Vriesea, Neoregelia, Aechmea, and Tillandsia.<\/p>\n<p>Bromeliad varieties like as much medium to bright indirect light you can give them. Plants are adapted for drought and should not be over-watered. The growing medium should drain easily, and the soil should be allowed to dry out moderately in between watering. In winter fill the \u2018cup\u2019 with lukewarm water, or lightly water the soil leaving the cup dry. In summer, the cup should be flushed out regularly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Suburban \u2018 60\u2019s <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This was the era of the baby boom, with a growing middle class that moved out of city centres into the suburbs. Suburban d\u00e9cor included a wider variety of houseplants, the most desirable being the Delicious monster, also named the Swiss cheese plant, as well as the Snake plant (Sansevieria) which we know as Mother-in-law\u2019s tongue.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Monstera deliciosa<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1297732\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1297732\" style=\"width: 420px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-1297732\" src=\"https:\/\/caxtondigital.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/110\/2024\/07\/Alice-Coetzee-12-07-2024-gardening-indoor-plants-photo-4-420x630.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"420\" height=\"630\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1297732\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Delicious monsters<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The bold, beautiful leaves of the Delicious monster is once again a must have plant, especially for large spaces or to fill bare corners. These plants can grow for years indoors with the minimum of care. They just need a light place but no direct sunlight. The soil can dry out moderately between watering, but don\u2019t let the soil dry out completely. With some support plants can grow upwards and fill a large space.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Free flowing\u00a0 \u201870\u2019s <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This was the era when houseplants really took off and every home had one, two or many. The Hippy culture of the late 60\u2019s spilled over into a taste for natural, earthy products like macram\u00e9, that was used for suspending hanging baskets or covering pots filled with \u2018soft, airy plants that added texture and naturalism\u2019. Well, macrame is back and so are ferns, peperomia, pilea, and spider plant (chlorophytum), as well feature plants like Ficus benjamina, bamboo palms and tropical Monstera.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Indoor ferns<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1297733\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1297733\" style=\"width: 420px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-1297733\" src=\"https:\/\/caxtondigital.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/110\/2024\/07\/Alice-Coetzee-12-07-2024-gardening-indoor-plants-photo-5-420x317.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"420\" height=\"317\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1297733\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">indoor ferns<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For light, airy foliage you can\u2019t do better than ferns, and they bring such a lush tropical feel to a room. Ferns are easy growers, that like a warm, humid room with bright indirect light. They are also suitable for sheltered outdoor living areas.<\/p>\n<p>Take your pick from the yellowish-green Bird\u2019s Nest fern (Asplenium), the delicate, cascading Maidenhair fern, the blue-green Blue Star fern that tolerates low light, and the lush Rabbits Foot fern with hairy rhizomes that resemble rabbit paws.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bigger, better \u201880\u2019s <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This decade saw a tapering off of house plants and their move into the big time: shopping mall atriums and food courts.
