I decided to get a norfolk pine. Not quite a berry bush or a flowering shrub, but still a little tree known to be happy indoors that gets decently big and looks a little bit like the outdoor plants in my region. :).

Good to know. That is one of the most interesting looking trees i’ve seen in a while. I hope you post updates about it.

Those trees are wild looking. Hadn’t heard of those before. I hope it blooms for you! Any idea whether or not they’re toxic to pets?

It looks like those (and unfortunately most of the common indoor fruits) are incompatible with pets. Appreciate the suggestion though
