5 beautiful plants for a natural Christmas

There’s no such thing as too many decorations during the festive season, especially when it comes to plants. Even if your Christmas tree and lights are already up, plants are a brilliant way to add some final festive touches. From Holly to Anthurium, here are five stylish festive plants that will not only spruce up your home but are quite eco-friendly too.

1. Holly (Ilex): A handsome favourite 

With its vibrant red berries and verdant, spiky glossy leaves, holly, or ilex, has great appeal during this season and adds such a beautiful touch to any home. A symbol for Christmas for centuries, it has always symbolised good luck and hope for the future, with farmers in the past never cutting off hollies and placing a holly tree to protect the farmyard from evil. Whether you are superstitious or not, this adds a beautiful touch to the home and is evergreen, so it rarely sheds leaves.
