The combination of pink and green is a trend that has been going on for some time now. Pink makes green a bit softer, and together it creates a luxurious look with a touch of femininity. So it’s not strange the Instagram-account Plants on Pink is so popular and Pinterest is filled with it! We’ve put three houseplants with pink leaves in a row, so you can easily bring this trend into your home!
Aglaonema
The Aglaonema has speckled leaves, that especially have a lot of color in the centre. The name of the plant is derived from Greek words: ‘aglos’ means beautiful and ‘nema’ thread. The aglaonema has strong air-purifying properties and is very easy to care for.

Calathea fusion white
The Calathea comes in different varieties, but only the Fusion White variety has pink leaves. The leaves have some sort of white stripes, which get a pink glow through the purple-red back. This is especially noticeable when you place a lamp underneath the plant, because then the leaves – literally – light up! To make it even more of an eyecatcher, place the plant in front of a white wall.
