The Best Plants for a Bedroom

Your bedroom is your sanctuary—a place to rest and rejuvenate after a busy day in the city. The right plants can enhance this atmosphere by purifying the air and adding a sense of natural tranquility, like bringing a piece of Stanley Park indoors. The best bedroom plants are low-maintenance and thrive in typical bedroom light, creating a healthier, more serene environment.

At The Bloomerie, these are our go-to choices for a peaceful bedroom oasis:

• Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum) – An air-purifying powerhouse that is incredibly easy to grow. It looks fantastic in a hanging pot, keeping floor space clear, and is famously adaptable. Best of all, it’s non-toxic to cats & dogs.
  • Light: Low–bright indirect.
  • Water: Keep soil slightly moist, but don’t let it get soggy.

• Snake Plant (Dracaena trifasciata) – The ultimate “set it and forget it” plant. It’s one of the few plants that release oxygen at night, making it an ideal sleeping companion, and it handles low light like a champion. Keep away from pets who like to chew.
  • Light: Low–bright indirect.
  • Water: Allow the soil to dry out completely.

• Parlor Palm (Chamaedorea elegans) – This compact palm adds a lush, tropical feel without taking over the room. It tolerates shadier corners beautifully and is completely pet-safe.
  • Light: Low–medium indirect light.
  • Water: Water when the top inch of soil is dry.

A Tip from The Bloomerie: Our winter light can be particularly dim. If your bedroom is quite dark, the Snake Plant or Spider Plant is your best bet. Rotate them monthly towards the window to keep them happy.Create your personal oasis. Browse our curated collection on the Plants Shop page.
