Find your kind of unusual
- Silver-marked trailing leaves: Satin Pothos for an indirectly lit shelf. Toxic if chewed.
- Round leaves for a bright desk: Chinese Money Plant for a smaller space. Generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs.
- Perforated climbing or trailing leaves: Monstera Adansonii for bright indirect light and room for vines. Toxic if chewed.
- Zig-zag stems: Ric Rac Cactus, a tropical cactus for bright indirect light rather than a harsh desert-sun routine.
Unusual does not automatically mean difficult, rare or suitable for every room. Read each plant's care needs before choosing. Photos illustrate the variety; markings, height and fullness naturally vary.
