Frequently Asked Questions
How often should you water plants with unusual and delicate foliage? About once a week, letting the soil dry out slightly between waterings — when in doubt, a slight lack of water is always better than too much for sensitive foliage.
Are these plants suitable for a sheltered balcony? Yes, provided the balcony is sheltered from direct sunlight and drafts — most selected varieties tolerate sheltered outdoor spaces as long as temperatures stay above 12 °C.

🌱 12 unique plants • 🏙️ Indoor & sheltered outdoor • ✨ Unique composition with each order • 💧 Easy care • 🎨 Unusual foliage • 📏 H25 cm | Pot Ø12 cm
The Box "Les Hors du Commun" is a bold plant set for botanical diversity lovers. Twelve plants with unique charm, chosen for their irregular foliage, surprising textures, and unexpected shades — from soft green to deep burgundy, golden variegations to contrasting veins. Each specimen reveals its own personality, and each box is a different composition depending on seasonal availability.
These unique plants naturally join Verdeia’s original and rare plants collection and collector plants selection.
Light & Location
The plants in this set are selected for their versatility — they adapt well to indoor life as well as sheltered outdoor spaces, making this composition especially flexible for apartments with balconies or loggias.
- Indoor: bright living room, kitchen, office — any room with indirect light is suitable.
- Sheltered outdoor: shaded balcony, urban terrace, loggia — protected from direct sun and wind.
- Light: mostly indirect to partial shade for the majority of varieties.
Group several plants from the set on a wooden tray or tiered shelf — the unusual foliage highlights each other and creates a very graphic botanical collection effect, as suggested in our guide to create a relaxing plant corner at home.
Watering & Care
The plants in this set are chosen for their tolerance to the variable conditions of urban interiors. To adjust watering for each variety received, our guide on how to welcome a new plant properly supports you from the moment you receive it.
- Frequency: about once a week — allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings.
- In winter: space out watering to respect each plant’s dormant period.
- Fertilizer: a liquid fertilizer every 6 to 8 weeks in spring and summer is enough for the whole composition.
- Care: regularly dust leaves with a soft damp cloth to maintain their shine.
When in doubt, prefer slight underwatering over excess — the plants selected for this set tolerate occasional dryness better than constantly soggy roots.
Decor Ideas & Plant Combinations
The unusual foliage in the set already creates a visually rich ensemble — a few well-chosen structural plants are enough to transform this collection into a true botanical jungle, as detailed in our guide on creating a tropical atmosphere.
- To emphasize the verticality of the composition, add a Ficus lyrata or a Kentia in the background — their upright silhouette serves as an architectural anchor for the freer, irregular foliage of the set.
- To enrich textures, pair the plants in the set with a Calathea Ornata or a Syngonium — their precise graphic patterns contrast with the wilder, irregular look of the extraordinary plants.
- For a cascading effect, add a Pothos or a Senecio herreianus in hanging pots — their trailing stems complete the composition by filling the lower level and adding movement.
- To highlight each plant individually, choose decorative pots in raw or colored ceramic — the uniqueness of each foliage is best revealed in its own container rather than a uniform series.
Verdeia Tips
- Mix light and dark foliage in your arrangement: alternating shades creates a natural contrast that highlights each plant individually — place light and variegated foliage between dark green leaves for an immediate relief effect.
- Ensure effective drainage from the start: a mix of universal potting soil enriched with perlite prevents water stagnation, which is the main cause of decline for plants with delicate foliage — check that each pot is well-drilled before placing it in a decorative pot.
- Maintain a stable temperature between 18 and 26 °C: sudden changes and drafts weaken the most unusual foliage — a stable spot away from poorly insulated windows and direct heat sources ensures dense, colorful leaves all year round.

FAQ – Everything to know before adopting your Verdeia plant
How are my plants prepared before shipping?
All our plants are selected from our European partner nurseries. Before shipping, they are watered, cleaned, and protected with breathable, secure packaging. Each package is designed to ensure your plant arrives in perfect health, without any transport-related stress.
Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos accurately represent the variety and the stated size. Since each plant is unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or color may occur — and that’s part of their charm.
What are the delivery times and conditions?
Shipping is done within 48 business hours, with tracked delivery within 2 to 5 business days. Delivery costs €5.60 — free for orders over €50. You will receive a tracking link as soon as the package is shipped.
What to do upon receiving my plant?
Open your package as soon as you receive it and carefully remove the plant from its packaging. Let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering. If it has been slightly stressed during transport, it will recover its shape after one or two days in the light.
What to do if my plant arrives damaged?
Contact us within 48 hours with a photo of the issue. Our team will assess the situation and offer you the best solution: replacement, partial refund, or recovery advice.
Can I return a plant?
Since plants are living beings, standard returns are not possible. However, we guarantee good health upon delivery: if the plant arrives damaged, it will be replaced free of charge. For any other cases (order error, decorative pot, accessory), returns are possible within 14 days.
