Wallpaper - Cactus Party II

Our Cactus Party II wallpaper, designed by Kristy Rice, brings together three distinct potted houseplants painted in a fluid watercolour style against a deep, solid black backdrop. The composition places a flowering green cactus in a sunny yellow pot alongside slender yellow-striped leaves in a tall container and broader foliage in a patterned red-and-white vessel. The high contrast between the saturated botanical tones and the dark background gives this design a crisp, graphic energy with plenty of playful character. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because of the strong dark ground and expressive botanical shapes, we see this working particularly well as an accent wall in a living room, dining room, or a vibrant teenage room. In a home office or hallway, placing this wallpaper along an uninterrupted stretch lets each individual pot and leaf shape sit cleanly at eye level. The solid black setting also creates an intimate feeling in a bedroom, where the botanical colours stand out brightly during the day and settle into a cosy, dramatic backdrop under warmer evening lighting.

Styling it

To let the playful character of the motif take centre stage, we suggest pairing this design with relatively clean-lined furniture and simple silhouettes.

• Warm wood furniture, such as medium oak or teak, softens the dark background while grounding the bright potted plants.
• Painted furniture in matte black or charcoal allows the vivid greens, yellows, and pinks of the mural to become the main focal points.
• Simple ceramic accessories or planter pots in solid terracotta or ochre tie back to the illustrated vessels without competing with their patterns.

Colour combinations

The artwork features deep bottle greens, bright lime accents, sunny yellow, vibrant pink blossoms, and touches of brick red against an intense black. When painting adjacent walls or selecting trim, warm off-whites, muted charcoal, or soft olive greens work beautifully to complement the palette. For textiles and accents, echoing the mustard yellow or blush pink from the flowers helps carry the cheerful personality of the wallpaper through the rest of the space.
