That’s a really good rundown, especially the bit about not just going for the cheapest plants and thinking ahead a bit.

With that many options listed, I’ve found it helps to double-check what you’re actually buying, especially from mixed or less specialized sellers. I’ve been using this occasionally when I’m not 100% sure on something https://botanapp.com/identifier/flowers

And yeah, spatterdock is one of those plants that looks great on paper but can easily get out of hand if you don’t give it space.

Loads of good choices there though, especially if you balance bigger statement plants with some smaller fillers.
