Plant Care Tips

1. Learn Your Plant’s Rhythm
Every plant grows at its own pace. Take time to notice how often the soil dries and how quickly your plant responds after watering. Consistency is more important than perfection.

2. Use the Right Pot and Drainage
Good drainage helps plants breathe. Choose pots with holes and avoid leaving water sitting in trays — too much moisture can cause root rot.

3. Light Matters More Than You Think
Plants rely on light just as much as water. Rotate your plants every few weeks so all sides receive sunlight evenly, and move them if they start stretching toward windows.

4. Group Plants by Needs
Place plants with similar light and water requirements together. It makes care easier and creates a balanced environment with consistent humidity.

5. Feed Occasionally, Not Constantly
A little fertilizer goes a long way. Most houseplants only need feeding once a month during spring and summer, and not at all during winter.

6. Keep the Leaves Clean
Dust can block light and slow growth. Gently wipe leaves with a damp cloth every few weeks — it also gives you a chance to check for pests or dry spots.

7. Don’t Panic Over Drooping
A little wilting doesn’t always mean disaster. Many plants perk up within hours after watering. Watch and learn how yours recovers.

8. Create a Calm Routine
Turn watering into a moment of mindfulness — a few quiet minutes to check on your plants, adjust their leaves, and breathe.

9. Grow With Patience
Plants take time. New leaves, stronger roots, and steady growth come with care and attention. Progress in small steps is still growth.
