Discover beautiful ways to introduce greenery aesthetics into your bedroom with boho chic decor ideas and stylish findings.
There is no better way to make a room feel more alive than by adding plants or greenery. Plants bring life and freshness to every room and make us feel comfortable and relaxed. So, a plant on our bedside table, nightstand, or by our bed is the perfect addition to our bedroom decoration whatever style it has from boho, modern, industrial, or traditional.
Moreover, a great way is to incorporate greenery into our bedroom decor in the form of indoor plants, whether it’s real or artificial. Of course, there is the option to decorate our bedroom with botanical art and bedding with botanical prints for even more natural decor.
Greenery bedroom decor ideas
Are plants safe in the bedroom?
First of all, there is the question of how safe is to keep plants in the bedroom. I remember my parents’ advice to take plants out of the room before we go to sleep. This opinion takes into consideration of photosynthesis, which is the plants’ way to make their food. According to it, plants take in oxygen and release CO2 during the night and make the opposite during the day. That’s why many people consider plants in the bedroom a big no.
But research has shown that we need a big number of plants in our bedrooms to create this problem. People and pets exhale much more CO2 during their sleep than plants.
Of course, we should consider other aspects like allergies and the safety of babies, toddlers, and pets. So, if we have babies, toddlers, and pets, we should avoid putting plants in a reachable position for them.
Plants to add to your bedroom
So, if we double-check the aspects above and we like the boho aesthetic decor of real plants, we can enjoy a tiny bit of nature in our bedroom. And, there are a lot of plants suitable for bedrooms to choose from. Thus, there are low-maintenance and low-light plants for bedrooms like:
- Snake plant
- Various species of dracaena
- Monstera deliciosa
- Chinese evergreen
- Spider plant
- Golden pothos
- Peace Lily
- Flamingo plant
- Aloe vera
- Rubber plant
- English Ivy
- Devil’s Ivy
- Boston fern
- Heart leaf philodendron
- Areca palm
- Lady palm
- Succulents like echeveria
- Bonsai trees
- Phalaenopsis orchid
- Gardenia
- Lavender
- Rosemary
- Valerian plant
- Tillandsia plants
All these plants are natural air purifiers. Some of them remove toxins (benzene, formaldehyde, etc) from the air like spider plants, English Ivy, Lady palm, Chinese evergreen, Peace Lily, etc. Others absorb odors like snake plants and peace lilies. Moreover, there are extremely strong and adaptable to any environment plants in the list like ivy and pothos.
Artificial plants instead of natural
Artificial plants are another option for those who don’t want to put extra care into real plants. There are a lot of nearly natural artificial plants that look like real plants. Plus, they are ideal for hanging them. For example, you can get a hanging fresh-air candle holder and put an artificial plant in it, or you can put it on a shelf and create a green boho cascade on the wall. And, you don’t need to bother with watering. They are always green and they are much better for having a withering real plant.
Get greenery freshness
If you don’t have time to maintain plants and don’t like artificial plants, there are other ways to add greenery to your bedroom besides plants. The main goal of having a green bedroom is to make it feel more comfortable, calm, and relaxing.
So, the first thing that you have to do is make sure that you have the right lighting and the right furniture. Thus, every item of furniture should be made from sustainable materials. Natural wood shades and rattan are ideal for a natural outcome. Plus, we can choose a color for our walls that matches the color of the furniture harmonically. Neutral shades are perfect for this. When it comes to accessories, we can add stylish elements like candles or lanterns to give the room a more cozy feel.
As for the bedding, we should get the colors right from the start and go for shades neutral or green shades. You can also try different bedding options to see what feels best for you and your partner.
