Yes, you can definitely place plants in your conservatory. In fact, a conservatory can be a great place to grow plants as it provides an ideal environment for many types of plants. You should consider these things before investing in plants:
Light: Most plants require plenty of natural light to grow, so make sure your conservatory receives enough sunlight. South-facing conservatories tend to get the most sun, while north-facing ones receive the least.
Temperature: Make sure the temperature in your conservatory is suitable for the plants you choose. Many plants prefer a warm and humid environment, but others may require cooler temperatures.
Humidity: Conservatories can be quite humid environments, which can be beneficial for many types of plants. However, if the humidity is too high, it can encourage mould and mildew growth. Consider installing a dehumidifier if necessary.
Space: Make sure you have enough space in your conservatory for the plants you choose. Some plants can grow quite large, so it is important you choose plants that are appropriate for the size of your conservatory.
Maintenance: Keeping plants alive can require some work so it is important you are prepared to care for the plants you choose. This may include watering, fertilising, pruning, and repotting as necessary.
There are many types of plants that will thrive within a conservatory environment. Tropical plants such as ferns, palms, and orchids, in addition to flowering plants like jasmine, hibiscus, and bougainvillea are likely to flourish in a conservatory, but there are countless other options. We suggest you do some research to find plants you enjoy visually that require a level of maintenance you are comfortable with.
Adding plants to your conservatory will add to the relaxing atmosphere, and by choosing plants that are suited to the environment, and providing them with the right care and maintenance, you can create a thriving indoor garden that you can enjoy throughout the seasons.
