Plants that harmonize with blue
After Pantone named Classic Blue
the 2020 color of the year, shades
of this popular color (as well as
shades complimentary to this
color) popped up everywhere. Al-
though, most plants go well with
blue, some that stand out in par-
ticular include Sansevieria, Calath-
eas (especially orbifolia), Dracaena
limelight, and bird of paradise.

Money tree
(Pachira
aquatica)
And the big winner will be: The
money tree
Why wouldn't this beautiful baby be the
star of the last part of 2020? Its braided
stem provides more interest to its already
interesting foliage, which brings to mind
both a tree and a palm. And the added
bonus: In Feng Shui practice, the money
tree brings positive energy and good luck
to its caretaker—something we can all use
at this time.
