Simple tips for caring for green indoor plants

Thick leaves - less waterGenerally speaking, plants with thicker leaves require less water and can be watered less frequently. However, they do enjoy an occasional shower.Thin leaves - more waterKeep in mind that some plants with thin leaves prefer to be in moist soil and should not be allowed to dry out between waterings.Dark green - place in shadeA plant with dark green leaves prefers shady areas and can often be placed a bit further into the room where the sun does not shine directly.

Don't just water your plants out of habit, but feel the soil in your potted plant, both in weight and down into the soil. Water as needed.

It is tempting to move the plants along with the furniture, but it is not always the best for the plant. Many plants prefer to stay in the same spot, but if a plant looks sad, a change of environment can be good.
