Mini must-have plants! This round-up of minis is just too good. All of our favorite house and summer patio plants in portable, decorator-friendly sizes. We also love these on WFH desktops. By the way, we keep ours looking glossy and gorgeous with a little Jack’s Houseplant Special about once every two weeks when watering. You’ll notice the difference.

Along came Polly, with personality for days. And get a load of these leaves! Polly won’t ask for much on your porch or patio either, just bright light (but not burning sun) and a big weekly drink. Plus, yours can come home in a patio-ready pot, too.

Are we dating ourselves by saying we were around for the first wave of these groovy macrame hangers? (Don’t answer that.) These have such a natural, relaxed vibe, especially swaying gently in the breeze on your patio or next to a window.

Pair them with trailing string succulents, or any plant, really. We recommend removing from your hangers when watering to help yours look it’s best.
