Plant care
Simple, practical guidance for light, watering, soil and seasonal care. Start with your plant and the conditions in your space.
Care guides
Find the right place for healthy, steady growth. Follow the light through the day. Many houseplants prefer bright indirect light, while direct sun and deep shade affect each species differently. Introduce a plant to a brighter position gradually and watch for leaf scorch. Rotate it gently if growth leans towards one side.
Read guideRead the soil and learn when your plant needs a drink. Check the growing medium before watering rather than following a fixed calendar. Let the needs of your species guide how dry it should become. Water in a way that allows excess to drain, then avoid leaving roots standing in collected water. Change the routine as conditions change.
Read guideUnderstand drainage, growing medium and root health. Use a growing medium suited to the species. Drainage and airflow around the roots matter as much as the look of the pot. When repotting, inspect the roots and choose an appropriate next pot. A much larger container can stay wet longer than expected.
Read guideAdjust care as the temperature and daylight change. Plants may use less water when growth slows and light levels fall. Check the medium and new growth before adjusting feeding or watering. Keep plants away from harsh draughts and heat sources. Seasonal advice varies with the plant and your local conditions.
