This living room is like a tropical paradise! The small space is packed full of healthy, lush, tropical houseplants; it’s just tremendous – and we’re so jealous!

my.jungle.at.home shares her Dutch urban jungle home with a pair of cute scaly-headed parrots (Polly & Cücük), a chameleon, a boa constrictor and a Burmese python… as you do!

Since moving here, we’ve found it really hard to find houseplants that are able to survive in the challenging environment that is our cottage. The walls are constructed from really thick stone, the windows are small and it’s very draughty. The house is often cold and dark, especially in the winter months; not the best habitat for most houseplants.

Although most of the plants listed below need warm, bright and humid conditions, a couple of them are flexible and able to cope with a range of settings. But more on that subject soon…
