Plants do more than look pretty — they change how a space feels. A well-placed houseplant can soften hard edges, lift your mood, and even improve indoor air quality. Outdoors, the right shrubs and perennials can create privacy, attract pollinators, and give your garden personality. Whether you’re a total beginner or a green-thumb veteran, choosing the right source to buy plants makes the difference between a thriving collection and constant replacement. In Denmark, a mix of big garden chains and specialised online shops give you plenty of options — so let’s explore where to buy and what to pick.
Looking for something fresh? Here are five plants that suit Danish homes and climates, ranging from easy-care indoor greens to hardy outdoor stars. These choices work well across apartments, terraces, and garden beds — and they’re commonly offered by Danish garden stores and online plant retailers.
Monstera deliciosa has those iconic split leaves everyone loves. It tolerates medium light and can be trained up a moss pole for a lush, tropical look. In Danish homes with bright, indirect light, Monstera quickly becomes a statement piece. Buy one from larger garden centres like Plantorama or online shops such as Plantetorvet if you want a range of sizes.
Calatheas bring bold leaf patterns and a calming, tactile presence to dimmer rooms. They prefer consistent humidity and indirect light, which makes them ideal for bathrooms with windows or kitchens. You’ll often find a wide selection at specialised indoor-plant retailers and some larger hardware garden departments that stock humidity-loving options.
Heuchera offers colourful leaves that perform beautifully in containers, shade borders, and mixed beds. Hardy and low-maintenance, these perennials work well across Denmark’s climate zones and give long-lasting colour without needing constant fuss. Local garden centres and online nurseries like Lundhede often stock multiple cultivars.
Lavender is a sun-lover that brings scent, a calming vibe, and attracts bees and butterflies to your garden. It’s perfect in pots on sunny terraces or as a low hedge in the garden. Danish DIY stores and garden centres — including Silvan and Bauhaus — usually offer lavender plants or seedlings suited for outdoor use.
Phormium adds architectural flair with sword-like leaves in striking colours. It’s great in coastal or sheltered gardens and impressive in large planters on terraces. While not hardy in every microclimate, many Danish garden centres and specialty nurseries supply suitable varieties and planting advice to help you choose the right cultivar.
Denmark offers a healthy mix of big-box retailers, specialist nurseries, and online shops. Here’s a practical tour of reliable stores and platforms where you can find indoor houseplants, outdoor shrubs, and gardening supplies.
Plantorama runs large garden centres across Denmark and is popular for people who like to see plants in person before buying. Their store format usually includes indoor plants, a wide selection of outdoor shrubs and perennials, and seasonal favourites. It’s a great place to browse ideas, buy larger specimens, and pick up soil or fertilizer in one trip.
Plantetorvet specialises in online plant sales and delivers across Denmark. They offer a wide assortment from houseplants and fruit trees to hedging and garden trees. Buying online from a specialist can be especially convenient if you want a particular cultivar or prefer home delivery with clear plant descriptions and care tips.
Lundhede is known for its broad range of shrubs, roses, and larger garden plants, making it a favourite for serious gardeners. They focus on quality nursery stock and provide planting guidance, which is handy when you’re planning a new border or selecting hedging suited for Danish conditions.
Silvan and Bauhaus combine DIY supplies with substantial garden departments. You’ll find seasonal outdoor plants, container-ready shrubs, tools, and soil. These stores are convenient for weekend projects when you need both materials and plants in one stop. Expect reasonable prices and national footprints that make them an accessible option.
Bilka (part of the Salling Group) and regional garden centres often stock a rotating selection of indoor plants, bedding plants, and perennials at competitive prices. Local nurseries provide the added benefit of local expertise and plant varieties selected for regional climates — perfect if you want personalised advice or unique finds you might not get at a big chain.
Choosing a plant is like picking a roommate: consider the conditions they need and how much attention you can give. Ask yourself about light levels, temperature swings, humidity, and how often you realistically water. South-facing windows support sun-loving species, while east or north windows favour shade-tolerant varieties. Measure the space — will a tall fiddle-leaf fig overwhelm a small apartment? Start small and add complexity as you gain confidence.
Denmark’s maritime climate means spring and early autumn are ideal for planting many perennials and shrubs. Planting in spring gives roots time to establish before winter, while early autumn planting benefits from cooler air and still-warm soil. Be mindful of late frosts and choose hardiness-appropriate varieties for your zone. For terraces and balcony containers, consider moving tender plants indoors before the first hard frost or choosing frost-hardy pot mixes.
Indoor plant care is mostly about consistency. Water when the topsoil dries for most houseplants, but check each species — some prefer to dry out fully, others like steady moisture. Use pots with good drainage, refresh potting mix every year or two for hungry plants, and rotate plants occasionally so all sides get light. Dusting leaves helps plants photosynthesise efficiently, and occasional feeding during the growing season keeps them vigorous. Little rituals like misting humidity-loving plants or placing a pebble tray under pots can make a big difference.
Online plant shopping is convenient and gives access to rare cultivars and a wide selection across Denmark. Reputable online retailers provide detailed care instructions and delivery directly to your door. However, seeing plants in person helps you judge size, health, and exact colour. In-store shopping often provides immediate gratification and expert chat with staff. If you buy online, check packaging standards and customer reviews to ensure plants arrive healthy. If you prefer choosing in person, visit Weekday mornings for the best selection and staff attention.
Growing your plant collection doesn’t have to be expensive. Swap cuttings with friends, propagate from healthy stems, or split clumps of hardy perennials. Many Danish garden centres run seasonal discounts or loyalty programs, and local community plant swaps are a goldmine for unusual varieties. Opt for peat-free compost and responsibly sourced soil amendments when you can — small choices add up. Also consider second-hand pots and planters for a more sustainable setup.
Bringing plants home safely matters, especially in winter. Protect root balls from freezing by wrapping them or transporting plants inside the car rather than on the roof. For fragile houseplants, secure pots upright to prevent soil spill and damage to leaves. If you’re buying online with delivery, inspect plants immediately: re-pot if they’re root-bound, and let them acclimate over a few days before repotting to reduce shock.
Look for vibrant leaves (no brown edges for moisture-sensitive species), firm stems, and a clean root system if visible. Avoid plants with moldy soil, wilting leaves, or visible pests like whitefly and mealybugs. Lift the pot — a healthy plant should feel neither waterlogged nor bone-dry. If something seems off, ask staff about the plant’s recent care or check online reviews for the seller’s quality standards.
Buying indoor and outdoor plants in Denmark is an enjoyable journey with many paths — from big garden centre chains to specialised online nurseries and local plant shops. Start with the right plant for your light and lifestyle, and choose a seller that matches how you like to shop: in-person browsing, expert nursery help, or the convenience of online delivery. With careful selection, a little routine care, and the right supplies, you’ll build a plant collection that breathes life into your home and garden for years to come.
