Why buy a plant stand? Plants placed on the floor may cause damage to the surface , especially if they leak. A plant placed closer to eye-level , especially if it’s in the middle of the room , is more likely to be cared for; you can’t forget to water your priceless fiddlehead fern if it’s on a plant rack right next to your favourite lounging spot on the sofa. The added height of a plant stand gives a bit of oomph to your plants as well , adding height and structure; multi-tiered stands in particular are useful for grouping small plants together and creating a mini eco-system in the middle of your home. Consider also the fact that certain beloved trends in décor incorporate natural themes; Scandinavian design , in particular , often features natural greenery and plant life within the indoor living space , as plants not only make white walls pop , but help people smile and breathe easier during long , cold winters as well. Plants give personality and life—literally—to a space.

If you’re going to shop online , there are a number of factors to consider before purchasing. Size is a particularly important feature; invest in a sturdy plant stand strong enough to hold the intended plant. Many of Wayfair UK’s indoor pedestal plant stands are quite heavy and are well-suited to supporting large plants. Most telephone tables are an excellent piece of accent furniture for displaying plants as well. Dedicated plant stands may be multi-tiered , with platforms at varying heights as part of a single structure , in order to support a small group of plants—perfect for your collection of miniature cacti or succulent terrariums.

Certain shapes and forms are designed to add a romantic , bohemian , or vintage touch; oval or round plant stands (or the half moon ‘Demilune’ shape) can be especially elegant in this regard. Many are made of materials designed to be forgiving in the case of spills or bugs; terracotta , metal , and wrought iron plant stands are quite common in both indoor and outdoor spaces. Every material has its own benefits and shortcomings and varying levels of porosity. Certain materials are easier to transport outdoors come summertime (and are suitable for indoor and outdoor use—think plastic and metal) , and a few models even come on casters for added ease of movement.
