Varieties and selection of wooden floor stands for flowers

Indoor plants fill the house with a pleasant atmosphere, saturate the air with useful oxygen and freshness, give a good mood to all family members. But in order for the flowers to blend harmoniously into the interior, it is important to place them correctly.

For example, a wooden floor stand is a popular option for placing flower pots because it does not require a lot of space. In addition, this piece of furniture can be placed in any home space: in the bedroom, in the kitchen or in the hall.

The structure of the wooden floor stand is a bookcase-like object. There are options for one pot or for several. For example, if a multi-level design is purchased, it is recommended to place several different colors on it.

It is not necessary to select plants that are in harmony with each other in appearanceon the contrary, contrasting flowers will look very bright and beautiful.

The multi-level rack allows you to place several plants at once, and they practically will not take up the space of the room, since they will be located from the bottom up. Unlike hanging shelves, the floor structure can simply be placed in a convenient place without the need for a hammer or screwdriver.

Wooden floor stands are made from MDF and natural wood.

Also, the wooden version is usually preferred by fans of everything natural and natural.

Floor-standing flowerpots are rarely offered in a variety of colors.... This is not necessary, because it is provided that they will be decorated with flowers or other indoor plants. Most often, rack manufacturers produce them in neutral classic shades: brown, coffee, white, wenge. It should be noted that the shade should be matched to the interior.

Wooden floor stands are of different types. They are described below.

• Solitary... They represent a nice wooden structure in an elongated shape, at the top of which there is a place for placing a houseplant. The product itself can be made in any shape, while repeating the features of a character or tree. Often in stores, classic forms on four legs are offered, reminiscent of a high stool.

In fact, this platform serves as an additional grip on various details, such as legs, and can also be served as a decorative element to accentuate the shape.

• Multilevel... These options are designed to accommodate multiple pots and are usually presented in the form of a stack or stairs. Areas for plants are set in such a way that flowers do not fall into each other's plane and do not interfere with the growth of the "neighbor".Sometimes rings or shelves can be placed on top of each other, but in this case they are suitable for miniature plants that are unpretentious to sunlight.

Also, all floor stands can be divided into those that hold the pots with rings, and options with shelves. The rings look very elegant and light, they do not visually clutter up the interiorhowever, caring for the plants will be somewhat difficult. Soil, water, parts of flowers will stain the floor all the time and be carried by households throughout the house, so this option is more suitable for very patient housewives.

The design with shelves is simpler, because in this case only the shelf itself gets dirty to a greater extent, and it is enough to wipe only it.

If you have doubts when deciding to buy a wooden stand, then you should familiarize yourself with the advantages of floor stands.

• Floor structures allow you to save space for window sills, tables, shelves, which could be filled with flower pots, which is not aesthetically pleasing and not hygienic.
• The advantage of a wooden stand is the ability to install it in almost any room design - the correspondence to different styles has already been mentioned above.
• On the lower tiers, you can put pots with plants that grow in height. This cannot be done in a window sill. The sections on high-quality racks are arranged in such a way that flowers in different pots do not interfere with each other, even with active growth.
• Wide availability is an important plus. Wooden stands can be purchased at any flower department or online store, and can also be made to order.
• In the price range, wooden stands are intermediate between cheap plastic options and expensive forging.

Before proceeding with the choice of a wooden floor stand, it is necessary to study the cons of the product.

• Compared to, for example, metal models, wooden posts have a shorter service life.
• The presence of a floor stand threatens with frequent cleaning. Plants can crumble, water can fall on the floor when watering - all this will have to be removed from the floor or scrubbed from the carpet. In this regard, hanging shelves or simple window sills are much more hygienic.

Going to the store for a wooden floor stand for flowers, you should follow some recommendations.

• First of all, you should measure the area that is allotted for the future rack. It is necessary to determine the distance from the floor to the ceiling: the stores offer very high stands, which are more intended for private houses and hallways than for apartments. For this reason, it is important to measure all parameters.
• In advance, it is necessary to indicate in kilograms the load that the flower pots will create. You should choose the design that will support the weight.
• You need to make sure that the device will stand firmly on the floor and the pots will not outweigh it. To do this, it is necessary to select a stand, in which the lower rings have a larger diameter for heavier pots.
• It is better to give preference to racks in which the lower rings or shelves are located at a distance of 40 cm from the floor, but not less. There should be the same gap between the levels - this is the only way the flowers will receive a sufficient amount of sunlight.
• If a flower girl is needed to place one flower, designed to create a bright accent in the interior in accordance with modern fashion trends, then it is better to choose a single option.
