Houseplants in Second Life used to be an adventure in “blah-land.” It was nearly impossible to find something that wasn’t a mess of alpha, full bright not-so-goodness. These past few years have seen some major changes to the plant scene and where before, there were few, now, there are many & they are beautifully crafted! These plants run the spectrum from the exotic to the ordinary and everything in between. Though, despite the numerous choices available, sometimes it can be tricky to find the right plant/pot combination for your room. Repotting your plants is the perfect way to refresh their look and add your own style. So, let’s get ready to dig into that inventory and see what we have handy to make our old plants new again and add our signature style to the look!

Finding items to use as pots; There are numerous items in world that are suitable for this task. Start off by looking at what you have for decorative vases, baskets, and even kitchen items such as bowls and glasses. I also like to pull out a bunch of my plants and swap the planters around and even combine two plants in the same pot! After you have rezzed out a bunch of your plants, start unlinking the greenery from their current pots. Be careful here as your plant may have multiple sections that need to be unlinked and then re-linked once you have it separated from its original container.

The next part is purely creative and totally up to you! Start moving around greenery and testing it out in some of your vessels and don’t be afraid to combine multiple plants to make something entirely new and unique.

Below, I am sharing a few examples of plants I repotted to give you a little inspiration to get you started!
