< Back Bromeliad Light: Your Bromeliad prefers indirect bright light like from a sunny eastern window. Too little light and the plant will not produce new pups and flowers, but too much light will burn the leaves. Water: Bromeliads are unique in that you water the center of the plant instead of the soil. Keep the center of the plant filled with water at all times – up to halfway. Every few weeks, empty any water, rinse and fill with fresh water. This helps prevent salt and mineral buildup. Only water the soil when it is 100% dry. When watering the soil, water until liquid flows through the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot and discard any water that has accumulated in the saucer. Pet-Safe: Your Bromeliad is non-toxic and pet friendly. The leaves can cause contact dermatitis in some individuals, so consider wearing gloves when handling the plant. Previous Next

< Back Orchid Light: Your orchid prefers bright indirect light, such as the light from an east-facing window. Don’t let your plant sit in direct sun, as the foliage and delicate flowers may scorch. If your orchid does not get enough light, it will likely not rebloom. Water: Water when 75% of the potting media volume is dry. Water thoroughly until it flows from the drainage hole. Discard any excess water to discourage root rot. Pet-Safe: Phalaenopsis orchids are non-toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Previous Next

< Back Monstera Light: Your Monstera can grow just about anywhere in your home! It tolerates low light, but grows faster and becomes more dramatic in a spot with indirect bright light. That said, avoid strong, direct sunlight because it may burn the leaves. If you don’t have a location with ideal lighting for your Monstera, use a Grow Light. Water: Water your Monstera when the top 50–75% of the soil is dry. Water until liquid flows through the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot and discard any water that has accumulated in the saucer. Pet-Safe: Monstera leaves are mildly toxic to pets and humans. Typically, ingestion will cause mouth and stomach irritation and possible vomiting. Previous Next

< Back Schefflera Light: Your Schefflera prefers bright indirect light. It can also tolerate medium and low light, but growth will slow. Direct sun in the early morning and late afternoon is fine, but avoid exposure to the harsh midday sun which can scorch the leaves. Water: Water when 75% of the soil volume is dry. Water slowly, allowing it to soak into the soil, until it flows freely through the drainage hole. Discard any excess water that accumulates in the saucer. Pet-Safe: This plant is considered toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Previous Next

< Back Zebra Plant Light: Your zebra plant thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate a couple of hours of direct morning sunlight, but avoid long periods of direct sun and especially direct afternoon sun, which can cause the leaves to scorch. Zebra plants are not adaptable to low light. Water: Water your zebra plant when the top 25% of soil is dry. Water thoroughly, and be sure to empty the saucer of any excess water to prevent root rot. Avoid watering directly on the leaves, as water can funnel down the stems and cause crown rot. Pet-Safe: Your zebra plant is considered to be non-toxic to pets and humans. Previous Next

< Back Cactus Light: Your Cactus needs bright direct light. This means a spot that gets 6 or more hours of direct sun per day, like an unobstructed southern or western window. Water: Water your cactus when the soil volume is 100% dry. Water thoroughly until it flows out of the drainage hole. Discard excess water to discourage root rot. Pet-Safe: This is considered pet friendly, but watch out for spikes! Previous Next

< Back Fern Light: Your fern will do best in medium to low light. The more light it receives, the more the leaves will crinkle and the less light, the flatter the leaves will be. Keep in mind, too much light or extended periods of direct sunlight will cause the fronds on the fern to get a pale bleached color. Water: Water when the top 25% of the soil is dry. When watering, water only the soil – not the leaves. Water accumulating in the crown of your plant could lead to bacterial growth and potential leaf rot. Water until liquid flows through the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot and discard any water that has accumulated in the saucer. Pet-Safe: Ferns are non-poisonous plants and safe for humans, dogs and cats. Previous Next

A good rule of thumb is if the soil looks dry or if the leaves are drooping, it's a good time to water - but some plants need watering more OR less often. My plant is dying. What do I do? Oh no! Usually watering is the most likely culprit, so let's troubleshoot: - If you haven't watered recently, the leaves look dry, and the top layers of soil are dry, water! - If you have watered recently or the leaves look yellow and/or droopy, stop watering! Your plant may be overwatered, and the likelihood of the plant developing root rot is high. Let the soil drain out when you do water, and trim away any black or mushy roots. If your plant needs more light, it might be worth investing in a grow light, or if the soil is the cause, repotting your plant may be your best bet. Do some investigating, and reach out if you need further clarification and help! What pot should I put my plant in? This again depends on the plant, but in general, you want to make sure that the pot is large enough for the plant's roots to grow. This can mean repotting as your plant gets bigger, as well! You asked, we answered.
