If you’re trusting in the fact that your pet would never try to eat a plant, eating a toxic houseplant is not the only way these plants can cause harm to your pets. Even rubbing against some plants can cause skin irritation, digestion problems, and more to your furry companion. Here are the top pet-safe houseplants so that your pet would be safe while you enjoy the benefits trendy houseplants have to offer for your rental home.
- Succulents. Succulents, while being trendy and safe for pets, are one of the most in-demand houseplants. Succulents are not that complicated to care for, and they also come in a wide range of colors and sizes.
- Majesty Palm. You can make an extraordinary natural statement in any room of the house with these large potted palms. Lush and pet-safe, these palms need only a little bit of maintenance, but the outcome is worth the effort.
- Boston Fern. Recently, this classic houseplant has made somewhat of a comeback. And best of all, it isn’t toxic for pets. You can put a Boston Fern in a hanging planter, on top of a cabinet, or a bookshelf.
- Money Tree. Despite its name, money doesn’t really grow on a Money Tree. This houseplant is also known as the “good luck tree” and is desired among followers of feng shui for its smooth green leaves and unique braided trunk.
- UFO Plant. Another houseplant safe for pets that will catch your eye is the Pilea Peperomioides. This plant is often referred to as the “UFO Plant” for its saucer-shaped leaves. This one-of-a-kind plant can add to the natural beauty of your house.
- Red Maranta Prayer Plant. The leaves of the Red Maranta Prayer plant are so appealing, they almost look like flowers. The Red Maranta Prayer plant has a one-of-a-kind herringbone pattern and streaks of red. It will for sure add tropical beauty to your house without bringing about any harm to your pet.
- Maidenhair Fern. The Maidenhair Fern, with its soft and feathery leaves, is a shade-loving plant that can grow in areas without much sunlight. It is also non-toxic for pets, plus it looks good in a pot or planter.
- Spider Plant. The Spider Plant is always an ideal choice because it’s both easy to grow and safe for your pets to be around. Low-maintenance and attractive, the hanging leaves of the Spider Plant can add a shade of green to any area of your house.
- Air Plant. The Air Plant is one of the more special and popular plants. These plants don’t require soil to thrive. This makes them great for display in terrariums or hanging in creative arrangements. They will not hurt pets but do need to be watered correctly to live.
By selecting a trendy houseplant that is safe for your pets, you can certainly delight in the natural grandeur of your plants month after month.
