Plant Ladies: Why We're Obsessed With Greening Our Homes

Given how much more time we've all been spending at home lately, it's perhaps not surprising that many of us have developed a new passion for plants. 

The number of varieties on offer can be quite overwhelming, so how do you know where to start if you've never had a green thumb in your life?

The Quicky speaks to an expert horticulturist, a green space designer, and one of our very own self-proclaimed 'plant ladies' to find out how you can transform your home into a private oasis whether it's an inner-city unit, or a rural retreat.
