FRESH START

Spring is here and it’s not just our outdoor gardens that are waking up! Looking after your indoor jungle is important ALL year round, and spring is a key time to get ahead and keep your houseplants feeling fresh and looking nice and healthy!

Our wonderful houseplant team have put together their top five tips for the season – so give their blog a read and put their expert tips to the test!

SPRING CLEAN

The cleaner your plants leaves are, the better they can take in sunlight and photosynthesise!

Carefully wipe your plant’s leaves with a damp, clean cloth to remove any dust or grime – we all need a little refresh every now and then!

REPOT

If the roots of your plant are bursting out of the pot, you may need to re-pot your plant into a larger size! Don’t forget to refresh the plant with some nutrient–rich potting compost. Have you tried peat-free houseplant compost yet?

FEED YOUR FRIENDS

As you begin increasing your watering routine, a regular feeding schedule can be introduced, too! A general houseplant feed is ideal! We recommend the ‘Houseplant Focus, Pour & Grow’ – now only £2.99 for our Green Card members or £5.99 at our regular price.

PRIDE OF PLACE

As the sunshine slowly returns, it’s important to think about the positioning of your plants. Those that were near a bright window in winter will need to be set back further to avoid too much strong light.
