Customer Review: "I recently ordered some plants from BloomBox UK and I was so impressed with the quality and care taken in packaging and delivering the plants. The website was really easy to use and the plants arrived in perfect condition, with helpful advice on how to care for them.

The Monstera, or Swiss Cheese plant, has soared in popularity in recent years, as they look incredible, clean the air, are fast-growing, and are said to be a sign of luck. Buy small and watch your monstera grow before your eyes with not much care at all. Just make sure the leaves are supported by moss poles as it thrives much better when it grows upwards instead of outwards. This is a fantastic statement indoor plant for your home office, and not too hard to care for either.

Customer Review: "Beautiful plant, easy company to deal with. Highly recommend Bloombox."

Punky, with spiky foliage, this Snake Plant or ‘Mother-in-Law’s Tongue’ is happy to be placed in the sun. However, it could work in a dark bathroom or hallway, also. It could brighten up any space. And – another plus – it can be watered every one or two months, ideal for those of us who forget to water. An added bonus is that the waxy leaf surface will attract dust, removing it from the air and making it a great plant for allergy sufferers.

Spider plants are one of the easiest to maintain indoor plants on the market. Due to its cascading nature, they can be grown from hanging plant pots or displayed high up. They love sunlight but not too much as it scorches the leaves. They do well in the shade, too, but they might not grow as much as they would in the sun. Spider plants like moist soil and don't like being overwatered.

Trailing plants like English Ivy look great indoors, as they can be popped high up on bookshelves or mantlepieces. A tough and adaptable plant, which when young, will look great spilling over the edges of seasonal pots and baskets. They're incredibly easy to look after - just be sure to check to see whether they have outgrown their pots and report them if need be. It's an excellent choice for a wildlife garden or Urban Jungle.

Customer Review: "These plants were very well packaged and in lovely condition. I put them in (Autumn and winter) hanging baskets."
