Last week, global color authority Pantone named Mocha Mousse as Color of the Year 2025 and the Gardens team at H&G couldn't be more excited. This warm shade of brown is one that easily complements foliage and florals, thanks to its earthy tone, making it effortless to incorporate into indoor gardens.
I personally don't see the Pantone Color of the Year 2025 going out of style any time soon. It's somewhat of a staple in the neutrals color palette, so there's no doubt investing in Mocha Mousse planters and vases now will serve your home for years to come.
Whether you have a large indoor plant collection or like to grow the best cutting garden flowers, I've got you covered. I searched high and low for the best Mocha Mousse planters and compiled them right here - I promise there's something for everyone.
Mocha Mousse Planters
I was delighted to stumble across these elegant self-watering indoor planters on Amazon. Not only does the color reflect Mocha Mousse, but the wavy line detail also embraces the creaminess of the Color of the Year. Having this planter in your collection saves you time watering your houseplants, too, as you simply top up water at the bottom and leave your plant to soak it up. The drainage saucer is also removeable to easily pour away excess water.
For those who lean towards modern decorating ideas, a cement planter is what you need, and these stunning pieces from Anthropologie are the obvious choice. 'Cement plant pots work just as well inside as they do on a balcony garden or patio, making these a fantastic investment,' says H&G's Head of Gardens, Rachel Bull. 'The ombre effect adds a more modern feel to them, which I really like,' she adds. An added bonus: these planters have drainage holes to help keep your houseplants at a happy moisture level.
This is a Mocha Mousse planter choice for those growing the best indoor trees or the best tall indoor plants. The pretty ribbed detail brings sophistication to any room and can also be styled in outdoor areas, like a patio. What's more, this planter is produced with sustainable manufacturing processes, making it a great addition to eco-friendly gardens and indoor gardens.
If you prefer block color trends, then you can bring Mocha Mousse into your home with these simple yet impactful brown terracotta planters from Amazon. I love to use indoor terracotta planters because they are breathable for plant roots and aid drainage. These planters do exactly that and are ideal for growing succulents, among other plants that prefer drier soil.
'I do love to add a little bit of print throughout my home and this pot is exactly what I’ve been looking for to house my ever-expanding collection of indoor plants,' Rachel says. This Wayfair find is too good to miss out on. The dual-tone brown and cream makes it the perfect addition to interiors with plenty of warm colors. 'It would work within a modern aesthetic and would also suit my mid-century modern style living room,' Rachel notes.
Another beautiful find on Amazon, this Mocha Mousse planter has a white floral detail that gives it more of a vintage feel. You won't make common indoor plant mistakes by overwatering with this planter, as it's designed to aid drainage with a hole and saucer. Made from ceramic material, you can also use this planter in a container garden outdoors.
Mocha Mousse Vases
This stunning Anthropologie vase is one we often recommend at H&G and the announcement of 'Mocha Mousse' has made it even more appealing as a trendy vessel to house cut-and-come-again flowers. It's beautifully crafted from glass and iron, with a brown finish that looks particularly gorgeous with fall and winter flowers. The urn-style vase is classic and perfect for table centerpieces.
If you want to take Mocha Mousse to the next level, try using this set of three Amazon vases in a range of cream and brown hues. 'As a floral designer I am always on the lookout for interesting and stylish vases, and this set is on my shopping list,' says Rachel. 'The earth-like tones are wonderfully calming and would suit a selection of ethereal dried flowers. They would look ideal displayed together on a small window ledge or as a feature in a downstairs cloakroom,' she adds.
'This vessel is so versatile and the rustic handles give it that extra elegance. It looks expensive and will elevate your kitchen table even without flowers in it,' Rachel says. The glossy finish of this rustic flower vase from Amazon shouts Mocha Mousse. As Rachel notes, it would look beautiful when housing flower stems but equally makes a statement as a piece on a table or shelf. Made from terracotta clay, this vase is also highly durable and can be used for years to come.
This is one of the most elegant vases I have found, with a subtle marble effect and slight sheen. This Wayfair Mocha Mousse vase isn't entirely opaque, so you can see the silhouette of flower stems inside. It's handcrafted and has an artisanal feel about it. It would also look beautiful housing bathroom plants or kitchen plants, bringing a touch of sophistication to any room.
Even if you lean towards minimalist décor ideas, there's a Mocha Mousse vase for you. This Wayfair glass vase has a simple design but is effortlessly chic. With a ribbed finish, this vase will complement a range of interior styles. Measuring eight inches in height, you can house a wide range of stems in it. It can also be a pretty way to display the easiest houseplants to propagate from cuttings in water. It's lightweight, too, so you can move it around your home as you please.
This Target Mocha Mousse vase is a statement piece, measuring 14.8 inches in height. The gradient detail on the vase is a great way to tie in the warm hue of Mocha Mousse with darker interiors - pair it with black furniture or try other ways to decorate with dark colors. It also has a hint of a retro aesthetic, making it versatile to style. You can display some showy blooms in this tall clay vase, like tulips or sunflowers.
There are so many options for styling your houseplants with Mocha Mousse planters and vases, all of which have their own unique touch. If you love Pantone's Color of the Year just as much as we do, you might be interested in other ways to decorate with brown to embrace 2025's winning hue.
