Caring for Our Common Plant Beauties
Our collection of classic houseplants—like Snake Plants, Peace Lilies, Golden Pothos, African Violets, and Ferns—are not only easy to love but also easy to care for. Here's how to keep them thriving in your space:
💧 Watering
Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Most common houseplants prefer a consistent but moderate watering schedule. Avoid overwatering—your plant's roots need oxygen too! Always check that your pot has proper drainage.
☀️ Light Requirements
Each plant has its own light needs, but most of our common plants thrive in bright, indirect light. Snake Plants and ZZ Plants can even tolerate low-light corners, making them perfect for cozy nooks.
🌡️ Temperature & Humidity
Keep your plants in temperatures between 60°F to 80°F (15°C to 27°C). They enjoy average room humidity, but a light misting or pebble tray can help if the air is dry—especially in winter months.
🌿 Soil & Potting
Use well-draining indoor potting mix to prevent soggy roots. Repot annually or when the plant outgrows its container to encourage healthy growth.
✂️ Pruning & Grooming
Snip off yellowing leaves and spent flowers regularly to keep your plant looking fresh and vibrant. Dust leaves gently with a damp cloth to allow for better light absorption.
✨ Nurturing Our Rare Plant Treasures
Our rare collection is curated with love and includes plant cuttings and mature potted wonders—like Monstera Albo, Philodendron Strawberry Shake, and Pink Princess. These botanical gems require special attention, and we’re here to guide you with care tips tailored to their unique needs.
🌱 Rare Plant Cuttings
-
Handling with Care: Upon arrival, gently unwrap and inspect your cutting. Handle the roots (or nodes) delicately—these are your plant’s lifeline.
-
Rooting Medium: Use either sphagnum moss, perlite, or a mix of moist, airy soil to encourage strong root development. Keep the medium slightly moist but never soggy.
-
Humidity & Light: Place the cutting in a humid environment (a humidity dome or a clear container works wonders) with bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun while roots are forming.
-
Patience & Observation: Roots take time—be gentle and observant. Once roots are 2–3 inches long, you can transfer your cutting into soil.
🪴 Rare Potted Plants
-
Soil Composition: Use a premium, chunky aroid mix containing orchid bark, perlite, coco coir, and activated charcoal. This encourages airflow and replicates the plant’s natural environment.
-
Watering Schedule: Water only when the top 2 inches of soil are dry. Rare plants are more sensitive to overwatering—monitor soil moisture closely.
-
Light Needs: These plants love bright, filtered light. Too little light slows growth, while too much direct sun can scorch their delicate foliage.
-
Humidity & Support: Maintain humidity between 60%–80%, especially for velvety or variegated varieties. Support climbing types with moss poles for healthy, vertical growth.
