In this guide, you will learn everything you need to know about XXL plants - from choosing them and caring for them to the best tips on how to turn your rooms into green oases.

Why buy XXL plants?

1. Advantages of large houseplants

Large houseplants are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also offer numerous benefits for your indoor climate and well-being. Here are some reasons why you should buy XXL plants:

• Air purification: Large indoor plants filter pollutants from the air and increase the oxygen content.
• Humidity regulation: They help regulate humidity, which is particularly beneficial in heated rooms in winter.
• Stress reduction: Studies show that plants can reduce stress and increase productivity.

2. Popular XXL plant species

If you are wondering which XXL plants are suitable for your home or office, here is a selection of the most popular types:

• Monstera Deliciosa: Also known as Swiss cheese plant, this plant is known for its large, slit leaves.
• Ficus Lyrata: The fiddle-leaf fig with its impressive, violin-shaped leaves.
• Strelitzia Nicolai: The white bird of paradise flower, which exudes a tropical flair with its large, banana-like leaves.

How to choose the right XXL plants?

1. Location analysis

Before you buy XXL plants, you should carefully analyze the location in your home or office :

• Lighting conditions: Pay attention to how much natural light the room receives. Some plants need a lot of light, while others can survive with less.
• Space: Large plants require a lot of space, both in height and width. Make sure there is enough room available.
• Room climate: Consider the temperature and humidity of the room.

2. Ease of care

Not every plant is easy to care for. If you have little time for plant care, choose easy-care XXL plants such as:

• Sansevieria: Also known as bow hemp, this plant is extremely robust and requires little water.
• Zamioculcas Zamiifolia: The lucky bamboo is almost indestructible and can tolerate longer dry periods.

Care of XXL plants

1. Watering and fertilizing

Watering: Most large houseplants prefer consistent moisture, but not waterlogging. Check the soil regularly and only water when the top layer is dry.

Fertilizing: XXL plants require regular nutrient supply. Use a high-quality houseplant fertilizer and fertilize according to the instructions on the packaging.

2. Repotting

Large plants need to be repotted every two to three years. Choose a slightly larger pot and fresh soil. This promotes the growth and health of the plant.

3. Light and temperature

Light: Many large plants love a lot of light, but direct sunlight can burn the leaves. A bright, indirectly lit spot is ideal.

Temperature: Make sure that the plants are not exposed to drafts or extreme temperature fluctuations.

Decoration ideas with XXL plants

1. Plants as room dividers

Large plants can be used excellently as natural room dividers. Plants with dense foliage, such as the Ficus Benjamin, are particularly suitable for this.

2. Arrange plants in groups

Combine different large plants for a lush, green corner. Pay attention to different heights and leaf structures to create a harmonious overall picture.

3. Set exotic accents

Exotic XXL plants such as the Strelitzia or the Ficus Elastica bring a touch of the tropics into your home and are a real eye-catcher.
