Water thoroughly, and be sure to empty the saucer of any excess water to prevent root rot. Pet-Safe: Cast iron plants are not toxic to humans and pets. Previous Next

< Back Pothos Light: Your Pothos prefers indirect bright light. It can tolerate lower light, but growth will slow and the colors may fade. Direct light can scorch the leaves. Water: Water when 50-75% of the soil volume 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: Your Pothos is considered toxic to humans and pets if ingested. Previous Next

< Back Calathea Light: Your Calathea prefers medium to bright indirect light—so placing it in front of an east, west, or north window is ideal. Direct sun burns the leaves and causes the beautiful leaf colors to fade. Water: Water your Calathea when the top 25% of 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: Your Calathea is non-toxic to cats, dogs, and humans.

< Back Fittonia Light: Your Fittonia prefers bright, indirect light. Lower light can cause it to lose some of its vibrant color and growth will slow. Too much light can burn the leaves. Water: Your Fittonia loves water and to be consistently moist, but not soggy. Water thoroughly when the top 50% of soil is dry. If you let your Fittonia dry out too much, it will let you know with limp leaves. Not to worry! After a thorough watering, the leaves should soon perk up. Pet-Safe: Fittonia are non-toxic and pet-friendly. Previous Next

< Back Pilea Light: Your Pilea prefers bright, indirect light. Direct sun may burn the leaves. In order to prevent your Pilea from growing lopsided, rotate it at least 2-3 times a week since it grows towards the sun. This plant can adapt to lower light areas, but the leaves will turn a darker green and the plant will spread out more. Water: Water your Pilea when the top 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: Pilea are generally non-toxic for humans and pets. However, when ingested in very large quantities, they can cause a mild digestive reaction. Previous Next

< Back Peace Lily Light: Your peace lily will do best in bright indirect light and can adapt to lower light. Too much bright light will burn the foliage. Too little light and the plant will not produce flowers and foliage growth will slow. Water: Water when 50% of the soil volume is dry. If the plant gets too dry it will dramatically wilt, but a good watering should perk it back up. Water thoroughly until you see it flow out of the drainage and discard excess water in the saucer. Pet-Safe: Peace Lily is considered to be toxic to animals and humans if ingested. Previous Next

< Back Anthurium Light: Your Anthurium prefers bright indirect light. Direct sun may burn the leaves. The more light the plant receives, the more blooms your plant will produce. Water: Water your Anthurium when 50-75% of the soil volume 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. Overwatering causes yellow leaf tips and underwatering causes brown leaf tips. Pet-Safe: This plant is considered toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Previous Next

< Back Poinsettia Light: Poinsettias love bright but indirect sunlight. An eastern window is ideal, or a few feet back from a southern or western window. Watch out for pale bleached leaves as this is a sign your plant is getting too much direct sun. Water: You should water your poinsettia when the top 50% of soil is dry. Water slowly until you see water begin to trickle out of the pot’s drainage hole, and make sure you let excess water fully drain out. Discard any excess water after a few minutes. Pet-Safe: Toxic only if ingested in very high amounts to pets and humans. The sap can be irritating to the mouth and stomach if ingested, sometimes causing vomiting. The sap may also cause a very mild allergic skin reaction in some people. Previous Next

< Back Croton Light: Your Croton will do best in a bright spot, as it needs lots of light (if possible 4-6 hrs. Per day) to produce all those colorful leaves! If your croton does not get enough light, you might find the plant grows tall and lanky with spare leaves lacking the rich, dark hues. Water: Water when the top 25%-50% 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: Your Croton is moderately toxic to pets and humans. Typically, ingestion will cause mouth and stomach irritation and possible vomiting. Previous Next

< Back Ficus Light: Place your Ficus in bright indirect or filtered light. Avoid bright direct light as it will burn the leaves and cause them to drop. Water: Water with room-temperature water once the soil dries 50-75% down. Water thoroughly until water flows into the saucer, then pour out any excess. Pet-Safe: Ficus leaves are mildly toxic to pets and humans. Typically, ingestion will cause mouth and stomach irritation with possible vomiting. Previous Next
