Caring For Your Plants on Houseplant Appreciation Day and Every Day After That

Today, January 10th, is Houseplant Appreciation Day. This special day was created to generate awareness and appreciation for one of nature's beautiful and beneficial gifts. If you have houseplants now or are thinking of getting some, this is an opportune time to learn about how to take care of them to ensure they last for years to come. Although houseplants are generally low maintenance, there are some specific things you need to do to keep them healthy like these houseplant care tips: Since it's winter time now, it's a good idea to focus on this season's care (however, we are lucky to live in San Diego where it doesn't necessarily get that cold!).

You can increase the humidity around plants by putting them in pots that sit on top of pebbles that have been placed in a water-filled tray or dish. Make sure you keep the water level below the base of the containers. Additionally, you will want to maintain a regular watering and feeding schedule for your plants. Many indoor plants do not need as much water and fertilizer during the winter months. However, you should still ensure that the soil is at least [...]
