Boho has a very distinct feel to it, and when you’re in it, you know it. It is the world-traveling, laid-back, earth- and people-loving spirit who brings in elements of all the places she’s been and people she’s met.

You’ll typically find a neutral background or base with saturated bold colors and shapes standing out against it. The colors are matte and usually earth tones. You’ll get a warm, relaxed feel with “pop” elements here and there that are surprising and fun.

The colors can range the spectrum of the rainbow, but they will both blend well together and stand out and contrast one against the other.

Your planters, therefore, will do the same. If you have a wild plant, it will sit in a neutral tone that works in the room. If you have a more neutral plant, you choose a planter that pops.
