Looking to buy plants online and wondering which ones are truly worth the hype? At our online plant store, we’ve noticed that some plants never go out of style, and for good reason. Here are five of the most popular indoor plants across the U.S., with simple care tips to keep them thriving in your space.

1. Monstera deliciosa

This tropical beauty, often called the Swiss Cheese Plant, is a favorite among plant lovers and a true statement piece in any home.

• Light: Bright, indirect sunlight

• Watering: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry

• Humidity: Medium to high (mist occasionally or use a tray)

• Fertilizer: Monthly during spring and summer with balanced liquid fertilizer

• Pet-friendly? No, it's toxic if ingested

Jenisprouts Recommendation: Wipe the large leaves with a damp cloth every two weeks—this keeps them dust-free and helps the plant photosynthesize better!
