The Beacon Clarendon is a pet-friendly luxury apartment community that’s ready to welcome you and your four-legged friend home! However, did you know that your green thumb may be dangerous for your pets? There are always little adjustments you make so that your dog or cat are comfortable. Here is a list of house plants that are beautiful and safe for your pets.

#1 Spider Plant

Not only is the spider plant pet-friendly, it’s also extremely low maintenance. The spider plant grows well in low-light and naturally purifies the air. They also come in a few different varieties.

#2 Christmas Cactus

Yes, there are plants that will flower during winter. The Christmas Cacti are easy to grow and flower around Christmas time year after year. Unlike a spiny cactus, the Christmas Cactus has no sharp edges, so you won’t have to worry about your curious pet getting too close and getting scratches.

#3 Bromeliads

If you’re in need of some color in your home, try growing some bromeliads. They come in a wide variety of colors, so you can match and compliment your apartment home’s color scheme. They don’t need very much light to thrive and are relatively easy to grow.

#4 Prayer Plant

The prayer plant is a very popular and elegant indoor plant. When taken care of properly, the prayer plant matures into a big plant. It eventually blooms beautiful white flowers.

#5 Swedish Ivy

When you see ivies growing outdoors, they seem to have the ability to grow long enough to scale the tallest wall. There’s not much that can stop them. This makes the Swedish ivy a great indoor plant! Again, this a low maintenance plant that will grow without much attention. They do particularly well in hanging baskets.
