Daily care and tips for All our houseplants

How should watering be adjusted for different houseplants?

Watering frequency varies considerably from one genus to another, from once a week for a Philodendron to once every three weeks for a Zamioculcas. Always let the substrate dry out between waterings. Overwatering remains the most common cause of decline.

Should you repot a houseplant as soon as you bring it home?

No, it’s best to wait 2 to 3 weeks after receiving the plant to let it acclimate before repotting. This gives the plant time to adjust to its new environment. Once this period has passed, a larger pot and potting mix suitable for the plant will promote healthy growth.

Everything you need to know about All our houseplants

Which houseplant should you choose as a beginner?

The most forgiving varieties are recommended for beginners, such as Zamioculcas, Sansevieria or Pothos. These plants tolerate missed waterings and adapt to moderate indirect light. They provide an ideal starting point before moving on to more demanding species such as Calathea.

Which houseplants can tolerate low light?

The Zamioculcas, Aglaonema, and Sansevieria can thrive in low indirect light, or even under artificial lighting. They maintain healthy foliage even several meters from a window. In a very dark room, a full-spectrum grow light is an effective solution to make up for the lack of light.

Are all houseplants toxic to pets?

No, many genera such as Chlorophytum, Calathea, or Areca are non-toxic to cats and dogs. Others, such as Philodendron or Monstera, contain irritating calcium oxalate crystals. Always check the details for each variety before purchasing if you live with pets.
