Now that fall is looming large, we are all tentatively tiptoeing back to our central heating switches and preparing for sweater weather to well and truly kick in. This is when our gardens go through a gear shift, as the easy-breezy, barefoot days of summer come to a close and the cold, crisp, bright autumnal days roll in. This is where my attention turns to houseplants – not tacky '70s throwback houseplants often seen in corporate office spaces, but stunning iterations I couldn't be without.
The best indoor plants are those that bridge the seasons with their evergreen or architectural presence. Once the curtain closes on summer and we hurtle into the chillier months, the houseplants you dot around your home really are the secret to the aesthetic cohesiveness of a space, and help to make a home feel layered, characterful, beautiful, and, crucially, reminiscent of the season.
