Seven ideas for gorgeous displays and the secrets for keeping your indoor greenery growing strong. By Danielle Claro
Put a Towering Tree on Wheels
The large, leathery leaves of a tall fiddle-leaf fig can fill (and transform) an empty corner. Make an oversize plant mobile
so you can easily roll it out of the way for vacuuming or to protect it from too much sun. All you need is a piece of precut
bluestone from a landscaping center set on a wheeled caddie. This dark, cylindrical pot creates a modern profile and keeps
the focus on the fig tree; its relief work echoes the “carved” leaves and adds one more luscious texture.
Care: Moderate light. Keep away from bright afternoon sun. Let the top inch of soil dry out, then water thoroughly.
