How to care for a houseplant in your home?

Many people enjoy planting flowers in their gardens, but some may not have the time or space to do so. House plants can be a great alternative to add life and color to any room in the home. There are many different types of house/indoor plants, so it is important to choose one that is suited for your climate and needs. Here are some tips on how to care for a house plant:

1) Choose a plant that is suitable for your climate

Some plants require exposure to sunlight while others prefer partial or no sunlight.

2) Water your plant regularly

Water Once a day if the plant is under direct sun light. Water twice a week if the plant is in indirect light or if you're using a water saver pot. Watering can also be increased  during warmer months when the plant's roots will go deeper into the potting soil to absorb moisture and keep its soil moist.

3) Trim your plant regularly

This could be done once or twice a year to remove dead leaves and also ensure the plant doesn't become leggy.

4) Give your plant a thorough clean every few months

Dust can accumulate on the leaves and if not removed, it can block the plant from absorbing sunlight and nutrients.

5) Fertilize your plant every few months

A good houseplant fertilizer will have balanced levels of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). Follow the dosage instructions from the package.

6) Repot your plant when needed

Most plants will need to be repotted every 1-2 years into a pot that is one size larger. Use good quality potting soil and make sure to water the plant well after transplanting.
