Wallpaper is truly having a moment. More and more makers and brands are out there creating unique designs, patterns, and essentially beautiful works of art to hang on our walls! And there are so many perks to wallpaper, too, but above all we love how easy it is to create a customized look in your home, whether it be a jewel box bathroom, an accent wall, a baby’s nursery, or beyond. Wallpaper is also now within reach for renters or indecisive home improvers, with trendy removable designs that offer the freedom and flexibility to go to town with bold choices.

We obviously have a soft spot for all things green, and that’s why our plant stylists have made a round up of some of our favorite botanical wallpapers to bring the great outdoors in.

Our favorite botanical wallpapers

A bold statement

The iconic split-leaves of the Monstera Deliciosa are the perfect statement maker for big and small spaces alike, and we love this bright design by Kate Zaremba.

Spring inspired

A hand watercolored print, the bright Spring Leaves design by Chasing Paper is the perfect botanical wallpaper for Pilea lovers and anyone who can appreciate bright spring vibes.

soft & whimsical

Floral wallpaper is an obvious classic, but give it a whimsical twist with “Secret Garden” wallpaper by Abnormals Anonymous.

Palm deco

Samantha Santana has a handful of fun and quirky botanical wallpapers, including her Palm Deco design inspired by art deco patterns and the magical palm trees of Southern California.

Dark & moody

Dark-toned wallpaper can have an incredibly dramatic effect. We love subtle tropical vibes of this botanical-inspired wallpaper by Milton & King, reminiscent of a Bird of Paradise or Red Congo’s stunning foliage.

a Hollywood classic

A bit of Hollywood glamour, anyone? Designer Don Loper's famous Bird of Paradise wallpaper has graced the Beverly Hills Hotel since the 1940's, an is also available for your home.

Flora & fauna

Looking for something truly unique? Try something by small French design studio Bien Fait, like this exotically captivating jungle-themed wallpaper. Photo by Julie Ansiau.

serene & peaceful

Inspired by the “eternal calm and serenity of an open field”, the Wildflower design by Calico Wallpaper is a gorgeous take on some of nature’s most simple yet beautiful creations.

plants on pink

Green and pink makes for the perfect combination with this Plants on Pink wallpaper also by talented designer Kate Zaremba.

Caribbean vibes

Slow things down with a wallpaper that is as beautiful as it is subtle, using Kentia Palm leaves make for a subtly lush backdrop like this one by Graham & Brown.

In Vogue, Alex Papachristidis said:

“Green has been missing from the market lately. It’s a color that I love and will always use and I feel it’s making a comeback. It’s such an important color because it brings nature indoors and into the home.”

In the National, Rin Hamburg suggests you:

“Use plants liberally to inject life into your home, but don’t just stick them anywhere. Create large groupings to turn them into a feature, or even max out with a living wall. Alternatively, think of unusual ways to display your plants – hang them from the ceiling or choose unexpected decorative pots. You can also mirror live plants with touches of botanical prints.”
