Bromeliads are vivid representatives of Floridian homes – these tropical plants are often seen in our sun-kissed environment and add exotic ambiance to our homes and offices. Bromeliad plants are easy to care for, even though their showy aura may appear high maintenance! If keeping as indoor plants, simply give half strength fertilizer every month during the growing season, and water by filling the cup at the base of the leaves. The collected water should be emptied out weekly, to clear debris and avoid stagnation. If for some reason you need to increase humidity (not common in our part of the world! ) place the pot on a saucer of gravel and fill partially with water, HINT: Make sure the roots are not sitting in water to prevent rot.
Peace lilies are popular houseplants, also known for their beauty and low maintenance requirements. They showcase lush green leaves and produce white s in the early summer which will bloom throughout the year.
To ensure that your peace lily continually thrives, keep its soil lightly moist – but never overwater. In the winter, fertilize every 6 weeks, and then once spring arrives, repot in fresh soil. Moderate, indirect light is best for the peace lily, and if you would like more s, move to a location with less light. Here’s a Tip: To guage the correct amount of light, open a book! If the lighting is indirect but you can still read comfortably, the plant will likely do well.
