Brown plants

This may seem like an obvious colour for plants, especially trees, but there’s more to brown colours in plants than just stems and dead leaves. Some species of fern are brown all the time and have a delightful rust-coloured look.

Some people even prefer their trees when autumn comes and the leaves gradually change colour. At this time you can see all the beauty in brown plants, with shades of auburn, mahogany and chesnut.

Here below a list of brown plants by botanical name and common name:

anigozanthos, kangaroo paw
anthurium, painter’s palette, flamingo flower
cordyline, mountain cabbage tree
cymbidium, cymbidium orchid
gerbera, barberton daisy, transvaal daisy
