There is nothing better than seeing new growth on your monstera or vibrant new leaves popping up on your pothos plant. On the flip side, there is nothing worse than watching one of your houseplants dry out or start losing its waxy green leaves. We are here to remind you that there is a lot of thoughtful decision making (not much different than scrolling through a dating app 😉 ) that goes into selecting a house plant for your space. We know that when your plants are doing well and you are seeing continued growth with healthy, happy soil it seems to reflect our best selves and serve as a reminder that we are inextricably linked to nature. When our plants are happy, we seem to be too. Choosing carefully what type of plant and where it goes in your home is something of an artform, and luckily, we have A LOT of practice. So, what happens when you find the perfect spot for your new house plant? Before choosing a plant solely on its sculptural leaves, towering height, or blossoming flowers, you should consider these essential elements below, like checking for pests, humidity levels, and seasonal changes in light to avoid plant care stress and instead enjoy your thriving green goddesses all season long.
