Good Thanksgiving table plants
Thanksgiving cactus, small ferns, compact pothos and mini foliage plants can work well on a sideboard or table when they do not block conversation.
Use cachepots for the look
Keep the plant in a draining inner pot and place it inside a seasonal decorative container. Remove it for watering so excess water does not collect around the roots.
Keep displays temporary
If the table is far from useful light, move plants back to their normal growing area after the gathering.
