Hybrid plants

Hybrids are both a natural phenomenon and a creation of plant experts. Hybrids inherit a collection of attractive traits from their parent plants between which they are created. Because this DNA varies slightly per plant, hybrids between the same parent plants can also differ somewhat. That's why it's always a surprise to see the beauty your hybrid has in store for you. However, you can be assured of a special indoor plant with striking features that truly deserve a place in your urban jungle! Will you take a look at our online assortment of hybrid indoor plants?

Hybrid Plants

Welcome to a very special category of indoor plants: hybrid plants! These plants are a cross between two or more different plants. In nature, this happens through mechanisms like insects or wind facilitating cross-pollination. In the world of plant enthusiasts, however, this process is carried out manually using various methods to create new plants that combine the best traits of their parent plants. This results in new plant species with beautiful foliage and unique characteristics.

However, the DNA of each hybrid plant differs slightly, even if they are bred from the same parent plants. Think of them as siblings, not identical twins. Each hybrid plant has its own unique characteristics, making it extra exciting and enjoyable to collect them.

Which plant families have hybrids?

There are hybrids in various plant families, such as Begonia, Philodendron, Hoya, and Anthurium. But there are many more plant families where hybrid plants occur—hybrid broccoli plants are not uncommon either! The number of plant families with hybrid members is extremely diverse and extensive. To make it easier for you, we've listed our top 5 popular hybrid indoor plants here!
