15 Awesome Plants That Will Bring That Spring Feeling To Any Home

Spring is here, and it feels pretty glorious. Depending on how your home is laid out, you may not be getting that spring feeling indoors.

Houseplants are a great way to solve that problem. Picking the right plants for your setup and skill level can make it so that you feel the blooming and growth in every room of your house. Some can even freshen the air and improve your air quality, which is a major plus.

Whether you've got a little bit of space or a lot of it, you'll want to get to picking the best plants for your space soon. That way, you can care for them and enjoy their growth and evolution through the rest of spring and summer, and for some plants, the rest of the year altogether. Gardening, even on this basic level, can be a serious mood booster and way to unwind.
