Of all the options above, Midorie would be my go to for buying an indoor plant.
This is mostly because I’m pretty clueless when it comes to caring for a plant, so it would be nice to get one along with their self-watering pot too.
My colleague owns 2 of their plants that are grown in Pafcal (an innovative sponge-like material engineered by Toyota Suntory Company), and only has to water them once a week.
So, if you’re someone like me who wants pretty plants that are low-maintenance, it’s an attractive option.
