Beginners Plant Buying Guide

Tips for buying houseplants

• 🌞 Light Conditions: How much light do you have?
  Every houseplant has different sun requirements. Some houseplants prefer bright, indirect light, some houseplants prefer full sun of at least six to eight hours each day, and some houseplants can tolerate partially sunny or shady conditions. Check your home at different times of day to learn how much light your home receives.
• 🍂 Soil: What kind of soil is needed?
  Do a soil test before you buy houseplants. There are three main types of soil: clay, loam, and sandy. Purchase soil test kits at your hardware store. It's not difficult or expensive. It will only take less than $15 and 15 minutes to find out what type of soil you have.
• 🏡 Space: How much space do you have?
  If you live in the city, most likely you have limited floor space for houseplants, so we suggest hanging plants or small houseplants.
• 🕓 Time: How much time do you have?
  Some houseplants require more maintenance and TLC. If you are a traveling plant parent and also forgetful, it's best to choose drought-tolerant and hard-to-kill houseplants. Buy houseplants that match up your commitment level and plant parent personality.
