Collection: Rustic Indoor plants

Plants

Our indoor plants are home grown, climatised to an indoor environment and planted in potting mix with a general slow release fertilizer. They have not been raised in a commercial temperature, water or heat controlled nursery. This makes them adapt easier to their new home. 

Each plant comes with Simplified care instructions.

*Bright light means well lit but no direct sun

*Med light means they will still do well in a darker corner

*Part sun means maybe a table or windows sill where some direct sun is OK.

*warm & humid means kitchen or a warm bathroom where there is more likely some moisture in the air, possibly from cooking or steam.

Other ways to create humidity is a pebble tray with water or clustering plants.

*Water when dry simply means normal watering, allowing the top 3rd of soil to dry between watering.

*Light water means allowing the top 3rd of soil to dry between watering and don't give too much water. Generally this instruction is for plants that dont like soggy roots or don't like their crown or base wet.

Another way is to bottom water by simply sitting the pot in a bowl of water for a few minutes and allowing the soil to soak up water then remove, this prevents over watering or excess pooling. 

*Regular water means this is a thirsty plant and requires watering more often than average.

*Prefers damp soil when warm means water regularly but don't have them soggy. They prefer not to dry out too much in summer but like less water in winter. These plants are usually more sensitive to browning leaf tips when too dry and can get root rot if too wet. 

*Bugs - Live plants can be a delicacy for some bugs especially new shoots and baby leaves. Always check your plant when you're watering to ensure you notice any visitors before they do too much damage. Most bugs can be removed with a little soapy water and I sometimes use a preventative systemic insecticide (groventine) if they are frequently coming back to a particular plant.

*Fertilizer. When using a good quality indoor potting mix, it will have a slow release Fertilizer included. Too much Fertilizer can burn roots and kill your plant.  

*Repotting. Your plant will only need repotting if the roots are growing through the bottom. It's only recommended to increase pot by one size at a time and very important to use a good quality potting mix everytime.
