Indoor Plants & Flowers
Care Water Light
Working in the interior landscape industry for over thirty years, I have found that indoor plants are very adaptable as long as changes are subtle and slow. You don't have to be perfect when it comes to your house plants. If you find you are having a problem, making a change in watering frequency or lighting, or both, will often solve your indoor plant problem.

Customers often ask for help with a problem plant and I always ask them to describe how they care for their plants. Since I can't ask all of you that question, I have put in some guidelines that should be helpful to anyone. Reading through all relevant information on the site will give you help in solving your plant problems.
Most plants that we keep in our homes are tropical plants. It is not always easy to keep indoor house plants looking their best because the home environment is quite a bit different than that of a tropical jungle. Most indoor plants will adapt to your care as long as you are not too extreme.
Knowing what your plants need to help them grow will make you a better plant parent! The basic needs for indoor plant health and growth are adequate light and common sense watering. I started this website to help others learn the best way to care for their indoor plants.

Plants Flowers & Pets
Over the years, I have had many animals and plants in the same house and have not had too many problems. I always make my best effort to keep houseplants out of the reach of pets. That can be difficult, especially with cats, as they seem to be able to get just about anywhere they please! Being an animal lover, as many people are, I thought it would be helpful to add a link for those with questions about pets and houseplants, as I have received a few emails with questions on the subject. Do not allow pets to eat your indoor houseplants or your outdoor plants. Questions about plants and pet safety?

With all the information out there, I have found that using a basic common sense approach to plant care will give you the best results with all but the most finicky of your plants. It is really pretty easy once you have some practice. Try one of the easier to care for plants such as Sansevieria or Pothos plant and start there.
Reading the sections on watering and lighting for your plant are most important and will make the most impact on your house plants health. Then identify the plant you have, or pick-up one from the best house plants list and read about it's special needs. That is a good start.
Remember you have to trust yourself and don't make the mistake that many people do by assuming that if your plant is not doing well the solution must be to give it more water. That will kill your indoor plant faster than anything else. More indoor plants care, information, pictures, and contact information below...
