Care tips for different plant species

Each plant species has its own specific care requirements. Here are some general tips for caring for our most popular plant species:

• Light requirements : Plants such as Monstera and Philodendron thrive in indirect light, while Sansevieria also survives well in low light. Calatheas like filtered light and prefer not to be in direct sunlight.

• Water : Most Ficus species need regular watering, while Monstera and Philodendron only want water when the top layer of soil feels dry. Sansevierias need very little water, which makes them perfect for people who sometimes forget to water.
