Bring texture, colour and greenery to your cooking space with our Kitchen Houseplant Collection. This trio combines contrasting leaf shapes and growth habits, making it easy to brighten worktops, open shelving or a kitchen corner with a display of indoor kitchen plants.
The Calathea Rufibarba ‘Elgergrass’ adds soft, gently waved leaves with deep green tops and purple undersides. Haworthia Fasciata ‘Big Band’ brings compact structure through its fleshy, green leaves and raised white stripes. Completing the group, the Philodendron White Wave ‘Birkin’ features glossy foliage traced with cream-white pinstripes.
Arrange the three plants together for a layered look or use them individually across shelves and counters. Their mix of lush, patterned and architectural foliage makes this kitchen plant collection a thoughtful housewarming, birthday or new-home gift.
Position the plants in bright, indirect light and keep them away from harsh sun, cold draughts and heat from ovens or hobs. Keep the Calathea and Philodendron lightly moist without waterlogging, but let the Haworthia’s compost become almost dry before watering. Extra kitchen humidity will suit the Calathea, although all three need good air circulation

Watering Allow the compost to dry well between waterings, then water thoroughly and let all excess drain away. These plants cope better with being slightly dry than sitting in wet compost, so never leave the pot standing in water. Reduce watering significantly through the cooler, darker months.
Best Growing Conditions Grow in bright light with some gentle direct sun, ideally at around 15-24°C, away from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes. Use well-drained soil and make sure excess water can drain freely from the pot. A warm, airy position and lower humidity suit this plant better than a steamy or constantly damp room.
