< Back Poinsettia Plant Care Tips & Tricks Poinsettias are the most popular plant for Christmas because of their rich colouring and the warmth they bring to people's homes. The red leaves are often mistaken for flowers because of their groupings and bright colour; however, the flowers on this plant are actually the small yellow structures located in the middle of the red leaves. Lighting: Locate your plant in a space with bright light. Poinsettias can tolerate direct sunlight during the winter months. Irrigation: Allow the top of your soil to 'slightly' dry between waterings. If your poinsettia came in a cheerful mylar pot cover, remove the cover at time of watering. If you choose to leave your pot cover on, just make sure to empty any remaining water from the base of your pot cover. You do not want the roots to get wet feet, ultimately causing root rot. Fertilizer: We do not recommend fertilizing your poinsettia when it is blooming. You can feed your poinsettia in late spring. Drafts: Watch for cool drafts. Poinsettias can catch a chill if located next to a door or pushed against a window. Previous Next

< Back Nephthytis Plant Care Tips & Tricks Also known as Arrowhead Plant, this naturally bushy tropical is an indoor favourite because of its broad leaves and easy-going nature. As it grows and matures it starts to vine, giving you the option to prune it and keep its original bushy shape or allow the vines to grow trail. Varieties: Strawberry Cream, Butterfly, Milk Confetti, Batik Lighting: Nepthytis prefer indirect bright light. Avoid direct sun which is likely to cause sunburnt foliage. Irrigation: Allow the soil to slightly dry between thorough irrigations. Water until liquid runs from drainage holes at the bottom of the pot and discard excess water. Do not allow your plant to sit in standing water as it will lead to root rot. Humidity: Nepthytis can adapt to average household humidity but will flourish in an environment with more moisture. You can add humidity around your plant by placing it on a pebble tray, using a humidifier, or misting it occasionally. Fertilizer: Use a balanced fertilizer during the Spring and Summer. Follow package instructions. Previous Next

< Back Venus Fly Trap Plant Care Tips & Tricks Lighting: Venus Fly traps prefer high-light locations. A bright window facing South, West, or East where they will receive direct sun is ideal. If your VFT doesn’t receive enough bright light it will go dormant. Artificial lighting will allow plants to grow during the winter months. Artificial lighting should not exceed 500 w/m2 at leaf level. Irrigation: Keep growing medium moist at all times. Venus fly traps are bog plants. If allowed to dry they will go dormant. Water quality is most important to Venus Fly Traps. They like chemical-free water. Tap water must sit for 24 to 48 hours before it can be used for irrigation. Charcoal-filtered water (Brita or similar), Reverse Osmosis, rain water and distilled water are all good. Humidity: These plants thrive in an environment with higher moisture levels. You can add humidity around your plant by using a mister, pebble tray, or humidifier. Consider placing this plant in a kitchen or bathroom where humidity levels are higher. Fertilizer: A drop of fertilizer in the soil monthly during the spring summer months is recommended if not able to have access to insects. When it comes to fertilizer more is not better for your Venus fly trap. High salts will kill your Venus fly trap. Temperature: They grow best in the spring and summer months. Normal room temperature 20c to 21c. If allowed to cool, they will go dormant. Previous Next

< Back Money Tree Plant Care Tips & Tricks Heralded around the world for its ability to bring wealth and prosperity, the money tree is a beautiful addition to any space. This classic tropical foliage plant has an intricately braided trunk and an array of five light green leaves radiating from each stem. The money tree is full of symbolism and is stunning to look at. Lighting: This plant will tolerate low to medium light conditions but will thrive in bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sun which is likely to cause burnt foliage.

< Back Prayer Plant Plant Care Tips & Tricks The Prayer Plant flaunts a striking display of patterned foliage.

Varieties: Rabbit Tracks, Herringbone Lighting: This plant requires indirect, bright light in order to maintain its beautiful colouring. Irrigation: Allow the soil to slightly dry between thorough irrigations. Water until liquid runs from drainage holes at the bottom of the pot and discard excess water. Do not allow your plant to sit in standing water as it will lead to root rot. Humidity: Prayer plants prefer environments with higher moisture levels.

< Back Croton Plant Care Tips & Tricks The croton has thick, distinctive leaves that display a wide variety of colours such as yellow, pink, red, and orange. Popular during Autumn for its vibrant colouring, this tropical foliage plant is often displayed in arrangements and planters.
