Love cacti, succulents and palm trees? Check out these home accessories inspired by plants. They’re sure to survive even if you don’t have a green thumb.

Plants are very popular – not only the real deal, but also plant prints. Designers have come up with various ways to add a bit of green to their designs. Whether as print or shape – these plant-inspired designs impress us with their natural look and materials. They add a finishing touch to an existing garden or create an indoor jungle atmosphere.

Textiles with plant prints add a splash of green colour to your home and create the illusion of being outdoors. With a little imagination, you can shower under a waterfall or lie under palm trees while you’re in your own four walls.

If you prefer natural colours, check out these designs that come in plant shapes: salad servers or wooden trays shaped like leaves. They’re a quirky addition to traditional tableware, are easy to care for and highly decorative.

They’ll also make sure you can enjoy a touch of nature at home, even if you don't own any real plants or your Monstera plant, cacti and other plants don’t survive.
