It’s time for summer’s tropical patterns to step aside, as floral and botanical themes with a contemporary twist, make their mark on our homes this autumn. Here are JLife’s top picks.
Pottery Throwdown
Landing in store and online for autumn/ winter 2018 is this ceramic plant pot collection from Oliver Bonas. We’re sure there’s still plenty of sunshine to come but as the days get shorter and the weather begins to turn, bring the outside in and add a splash of colour to your surroundings.
£16 – £55

Fake it
If you’re far from green-fingered but still want to adorn your home in greenery, fake it with a selection of faux house plants! Opt for realistic versions like this faux fern from Sainsbury’s with the added bonus of a stylish pot. Visually appealing and no upkeep required, you just need to decide where you’re going to display it.

Rosy Outlook
Simple home accessories are an effective way to add a touch of botanical charm. Take this rose cushion design by John Derian, for example.
