How Crystals and Indoor Plants Thrive Together: My Personal Journey

by Laura Konst on Jan 30 2021

Our Plant Momma CEO Shares

Hi, I’m Laura — CEO of Tali & Loz and proud plant “mother” to over 30 indoor plants. You might wonder: how do crystals and plants work together? Let me share my experience with crystals for indoor plants and the remarkable effects I’ve noticed. Ready to dive in?

Like all living things, plants have their own energy — some might say even their own character.

My Plant Collection & Crystal Connection

Most of my plants started as tiny babies and have since thrived, multiplied, and grown into flourishing beauties. For example, my Sansevieria has multiplied into three large plants — with more to come! My Peace Lily has bloomed multiple times and split into several new plants.

As a plant mother, I’ve learned each plant behaves uniquely, some are picky about their spot, signaling their preferences by drooping leaves or stunted growth. What amazed me most was how much my plants seemed to love crystals, just like me. It took some time to notice, but now it’s obvious: crystals positively affect my plants’ wellbeing.

My Journey Using Crystals with Plants

At first, I used crystals in pots because they look stunning. But I soon noticed plants with raw Clear Quartz nearby needed less water and had healthier leaves. Turns out, I’m not alone, many agree crystals support plant vitality.

Plants grow naturally in mineral-rich soils, sometimes near crystals, so this connection makes sense. However, not every crystal suits every plant, just like how we each resonate differently with certain stones.

After dividing plants, which is stressful for them, I began adding raw Clear Quartz and Rose Quartz to their pots. These crystals’ calming, restorative energies seemed to speed recovery, acting like a spa treatment after a tough experience.

electromagnetic pollution. It helps your plants feel secure and promotes healthy growth in challenging environments.

What to Watch Out For

Avoid soft crystals like selenite or opals near plants, as they can degrade or crumble in soil.

Always check if mixing crystals is necessary, too many energies at once can overwhelm your plants.

Use crystals sized appropriately for your plants; larger plants need bigger stones to feel the benefit.

Place crystals on or just below soil surface to keep their energy effective without disturbing roots.

Final Thoughts

Using crystals with plants is a beautiful way to support their growth, energy and happiness. It’s a journey of trial, observation, and intuition just like caring for ourselves.

Have you tried crystals with your plants? What experiences have you had? I’d love to hear your stories.

Wishing you and your plants all the best,

Love & Light, Laura

Great article! Will give this a go with my plants.

This has made me very keen to incorporate crystals into my plants at home. I’m interested in incorporating black tourmaline, drawing away the negative energy is such an essential part of life at the moment!

I definitely need to follow this advice in order to on day manage to keep a plant alive! #notaplantmama 🌿🪴🌵
