If Feng Shui already inspires your choices for your home, you know that the East, Southeast and South are naturally favorable directions for placing plants — areas associated with growth, vitality, and expansion. But since energy shifts every year, it's a good idea to adjust the placement of your plants based on the most auspicious directions of 2025. Shall we?



East – The classic that remains on top

East – The classic that remains on top

It continues to be one of the most favorable areas for greenery in your home or garden. This year, give it an elegant boost with medium-sized plants, such as a small orange tree, a potted olive tree, or decorative bamboo. For garden accessories, go for green tones with hints of fuchsia, orange, or purple – a vibrant palette that activates the energy of growth.

Southeast – Quality is the key word

This year, the Southeast demands extra attention to the vitality of your plants. It’s not about adding more — it’s about ensuring that the ones you already have are at their best. Tired or somewhat forgotten plants? Thank them... and replace them with a new one.

Here, it will be more auspicious to choose fresh, well-cared-for plants with flowers, especially in bluish or purplish tones, such as lavender. For decorative touches, blue remains the right color — and if you add accents in white, silver, or gold, you’ll further elevate the space’s vibration.

West – A Positive Surprise in 2025

Although the West is not traditionally the strongest area for plants, this year brings an exception. You can place a flowering plant (especially white) indoors — like a white orchid on a sideboard — or a discreet flower bed outdoors. The idea is to bring life with elegance. A fresh touch, but without excess.



South – Favourable, but With Moderation

Yes, the South remains one of the most energetically supportive directions for plants. But in 2025, avoid expanding your flower “collection” here. Instead of adding new plants, focus on maintaining the ones you already have. If a plant is no longer thriving, it’s time to let it go with gratitude. Rather than investing in more greenery, consider placing a ceramic statue facing inward toward the home. This statue can serve as a symbol of protection, aligning with the energies of this direction without overwhelming the space with extra vegetation.

💡 Important note: These suggestions apply to both indoor and outdoor spaces — the key is understanding which type of plant suits each environment. If you don’t have the time (or talent) to care for real ones, you can always opt for artificial plants. In that case, one per direction is enough to symbolise the element.



🖊️Quick checklist to align your energy in style for 2025:

  •  Check the favourable directions in your home

  •  East → medium-sized plants

  •  Southeast → thriving plants + blue/lavender tones

  •  West → one subtle white flower

  •  South → maintenance only + metal statue?

  •  Indoors or outdoors? Pick plants that fit the space

  •  No time? One intentional faux plant does the trick


No stress, no superstition — just cool vibes! Have fun!
