I’m a bit late with the December post for Urban Jungle Bloggers. As the eagle-eyed among you will have spotted, it’s not actually December anymore.
But the theme for the month is planty wishes for 2016 and I love it so much that I can’t miss the chance to join in, even if it’s nearly two weeks belatedly.
My planty wishes for this year are very simple: I just want more plants!
Lots and lots more plants.
To represent my plantopia, I’ve gathered together every single plant I have in my house and put them all into one place. (That place being a rather lovely old wooden ladder…)
Essentially, this is the look I want in every single room of the house by the end of the year. Ha ha, does that sound a little bit crazed?!
I need to work out positions for the plants where they can’t be too destroyed by the children, as well as simply buying quite a few more plants in the next few months, but that’s just the practicalities to figure out before I can achieve the dream!
Watch this space, friends, 2016 is set to be the year of the houseplant chez Wolves in London.
It’s PERFECT and I too want the same here now I’ve seen this!
I’ve never been much of a one for house plants – my house is just too chaotic as it is, but that is just lovely.
When you were young did you ever read the lovely picture book The Plant Sitter by Gene Zion (who wrote Harry the Dirty Dog)? If you do a Google images search for it you’ll see how I imagine your house in a year’s time.

Oh I love it so much! Yes, that is exactly what I’d like my house to look like, ha ha. I am going to go and get a copy now as well (if I can find one) as that looks like a complete must have. Thanks so much for the recommendation!
I absolutely LOVE what you have done with your plants! Now I want to gather all my plants and place them all together. How lovely! And your pictures are beautiful.
