YOUR ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO WHERE, WHEN, WHY AND HOW MUCH TO WATER YOUR INDOOR PLANTS

THE DRINKS ARE ON YOU

LIKE FOR LIKE It’s easier to manage the health of your indoor plants if they’re all similar in type – such as these succulents, cacti and air plants which all have low water needs.

You can’t rely on rain to water your indoor garden and, unlike an outdoor patch, it’s not a case of one downfall suits all. Unless you go for a plant theme – say, all succulents or all tropicals – they’ll have different watering needs. If you get it wrong – too much or too little – your plants won’t thrive. And you don’t want that!

LOOK FOR CONTAINERS TO COMPLEMENT YOUR PLANTS – AND YOUR DECOR’S COLOUR AND STYLE. ECLECTIC WORKS!

ABOVE HERE’S HOW TO DIVIDE A ROOM! Zanzibar gem or ZZ plant (because its botanical name is Zamioculcas zamiifolia) is low maintenance and has low water needs. So easy! BELOW BUNDLES OF JOY! The heart-leaf philodendron is so easy to grow indoors. It’s naturally trailing, so twist it around itself for volume. When the leaves start to pale, water it!

HOW MUCH WATER?
