Indoor Plant Genealogies and Origins

FAQ About Indoor Plant Genealogies and Origins

How do indoor plants evolve from their native habitats?

Indoor plants evolve from their native habitats through a process of adaptation and selective breeding. Initially, these plants grow in specific natural conditions that suit them, such as tropical rainforests or deserts. Cultivators select species that display favorable traits for indoor settings, like low light tolerance or compact size, and propagate them to enhance these traits.
