The Editors’ Cut: 15 Accessories for the Doting Houseplant Parent

December 27, 2024

Welcome to The Editors’ Cut, our recently launched column dedicated to all things beautiful and useful for the garden, patio, porch, and terrace. Each month, we’ll do an obsessive dive into the latest and best products for outdoor living and surface our finds here—from heirloom-quality soon-to-be classics to of-the-moment must-haves. In this installment, we’ve unearthed tools and treasures for the attentive houseplant parent. Whether you’re caring for just a couple of windowsill pots or an entire home filled with exotics, now’s the perfect time, when daylight is in short supply and temperatures are low, to show your indoor garden some extra love. — The Gardenista Editors

Handmade Maple Step Stool (and Plant Stand)

This gorgeous piece by Catskills-based Brian Persico is meant to be a step stool, but we think it could easily (and beautifully) double as a plant stand. Shop now.

Diane James Fab Fig Tree

Sponsored by Diane James Home: If you’ve had no luck growing the notoriously fickle fiddle leaf fig tree (yes, it’s still wildly popular), consider this wilt-proof faux version, hand-assembled in Connecticut. With a real wood trunk and “planted” with natural moss, it will fool even the most discriminating green thumb. Shop now.
