Ikea is here to set up your greenery in the most contemporary, organic style with the newDAKSJUS collection featuring all limited-edition planters, hanging pots, and more. The new line aims to make indoor planting more accessible for those with limited space—pieces like a 2-piece sprouting dish ($10) and potting mat ($5) allow you to create an indoor garden from start to finish with affordable (and adorable) accessories.
“The goal was to create a set of small plant pots that would allow people to bring greenery into any room, even on a small surface," IKEA designers Wiebke Braasch, Luna Gil & Anna-Maria Nilsson said in a statement. “We hope they inspire you to fill your home with plants, color, and joy.”
The plant pots, made of ceramic earthenware, are available in colors that reflect current interior trends, including dusky pink, pale blue, bright marigold, and bold navy. The set of four mini pots (2 ¼ inches) rings up at $12, and the sets of 2 (6 ¾ inches) go for $14. The mini pots are ideal for baby succulents or an herb garden for your kitchen windowsill.

The DAKSJUS collection also features lightweight and portable plant stands designed to take up little room, making them perfect for small areas like a home office or a secondary bedroom. The three styles are made of renewable bamboo, starting at $10. The $80 tiered stand measures up at 56 ¾-inches tall and can double as a room divider in a studio or living room.
Going vertical with decor in small rooms provides an easy, safe-saving way to add color and texture, so hanging plants make a clever option. DAKSJUS hanging planters come in sets of two ($17), in cream and soft sage, perfect hues for showcasing your favorite spider plant or Boston fern. Mix and

AS SHE OFTEN DOES, naturalist and nature writer Nancy Lawson—perhaps known better to some of you as the Humane Gardener after the title of her first book—caught my attention the other day.
If there’s one thing celebrity recipes are guaranteed to do, it’s spark a (lightly-controversial) conversation in the comments of their social media. Reese Witherspoon did just that after she shared a new creation with the world on TikTok January 18: a mug of snow mixed with cold brew topped with salted caramel and chocolate drizzle.
This year, when gardeners look at plant and seed catalogs, I think they will be inclined to go for the safe and familiar. After all, even optimists need a sense of security. It will probably be a banner year for roses of all kinds, with reds selling well. The ongoing vogue for cottage flowers will probably continue to be strong. In fact, the wildest thing many people will invest in come spring will be a few of the more bizarre coleus cultivars.
Tender climbing perennial plants which are free flowering and suitable for growing in pots in the greenhouse, or for planting out of doors. They are closely related to the Snapdragon (Antirrhinum), to whose family, Scrophulariaceae, they belong.

Some people get their kicks from designer labels, others from rummaging through flea shops, or collecting obscure Japanese comics, vintage tractors, handbags, dolls, beer-mats, Star Wars merchandise or whatever else. Me, I get mine from ordering seeds.
