  • After obsessively watching house plant tour videos for years, I thought it would be fun to take a deep dive into plants that were typical for '80s houseplant lovers. What would a house tour look like back then?
    I had a lot of fun with this one. Let me know if I should do any other decades!

    Aglaonema’s are extremely low maintenance. Great video. Try some aglaonema’s. You can get them in any color your heart desires.

      I don’t know where I got the idea that they were high maintenance! I’ve always loved them from afar so I’m excited to try one now😊

    I lived through the 80's. I was not aware that in those days, Maximalism, was the order of the day. That is interesting. Over all, I don't really see a huge difference from then to now other than variegated plants were not as accessible back then. You basically got what you could get at the local nursery. Sometimes if you knew about specific plant you could ask the nursery to special order it for you. Succulents are still popular and you can stick them into those bright Talavera planters for that pop of color effect these days. I suppose spider plants were more popular back then and the other popular plant that I remember was pothos, typically kept as a trailing plant rather than climbing up moss poles. Indeed, African Violets were popular with some older women, I used to work with. However, judging by what's for sale on Etsy, African violets are still popular; they're just a favorite that for what ever reason aren't talked about on social media, if that makes any sense. As you can see, the indoor jungle is still a thing. That trend has not gone away and I don't foresee that going away anytime soon.

    I have a silver bay chinese evergreen and a lady valentine...They're the easiest plants i own..i practically ignore them and they still thrive. They're often called "office plants" or mall plants for this reason.

    I came of age in the 80s and I am not sure I agree with you. Monstera deliciosa was big in the 80s. If you look at any 80s television show, you would see large Monsteras, ficus, aglaonema, spider plant, Calathea, ferns, pothos , ZZ plants, Christmas cactus, basic anthuriums, orchids. Frankly, main difference is all the variegated plants and the anthurium hybrids. Large plants were placed in wicker baskets on the floor. I cannot recall the focus on gold but there was colorful planters not the all white planters that are common today. Plants were not always just statement pieces. The jungle bohemian look was also common. Of course now there is more access to the more exotic plants.

      Great insight! I listed quite a few of the plants you mentioned in the video :)I got the majority of my information from a couple of 80’s plant books I own and as many plant blogs as I could find from the 80’s. I also mentioned wanting the jungle vibe in the beginning of the video but just noticed a big emphasis on big statement plants. But I didn’t live through that time period so I really appreciate you sharing your experience! Thanks for watching!!
