BESPOKE: HOUSE PLANTS BACK IN VOGUE

Harlem Bespoke: There was a time after the 70s that most homeowners did not really consider having multiple house plants inside but that has changed with the newer generation. Cut arrangements were all the rage during the 80s until the aughts but now millennials have changed all that with a preference for having an indoor jungle all year round.  Some of the newer coffee shops such as Shuteye on 116th Street or Plowhshares on 127th and Dear Mama on 129th Street all are hip to this new trend.

We had talk to a young architect recently who mentioned that part of the development projects at their company now always includes a plant consultant to spruce up the final interior when the physical space finishes up.  With that said, East Harlem's Urban Garden Center at La Marqueta is the place for interested uptowners to get more green and beautify their homes since the location under the Park Avenue elevated line is the largest outdoor garden space in Manhattan: LINK
