Easy House Plants

A massive tree with glossy leaves and a modern pot will add a touch of class to any corner. It's easy to care for and is happy to be rooted, reducing the need for the need to repot.

Plants that are matched to light conditions is essential. Avoid potted house plants plants with drooping or soggy leaves, mushy roots, or soil that is wet. They may not be salvageable and could be a breeding ground for diseases.

Pothos

Pothos, also called Devil's Ivy or Rapunzel plant, is one of the easiest to care for foliage plants. It thrives under indirect lighting that is dim to bright and is ideal for filling in dark areas of rooms. It's tolerant of all conditions and can even tolerate direct sunlight if it's not prolonged. If it's exposed to too much sun, it can get swollen and lose its variation.

Pothos is easy to propagate by cutting a stem tip. Simply cut a length of vine and remove a couple of leaves down to 2"-3". Put it in a container with water. It will begin growing roots quickly. It is crucial to change the water frequently, ideally once every two weeks. It will establish roots in either water or the potting soil. Once the root system has established (usually in around 4 weeks) then transfer it into a pot that has regular houseplant potting soil.

Pothos, like all houseplants near me, requires good general houseplant fertiliser to ensure its health. Pothos does not require regular fertilization like other houseplants near me. It is enough to feed the plant once per month in the spring and summer months.

Like most plants, it is important to avoid placing the Pothos in drafty areas or continue to site near a radiator as it can cause its leaves to turn brown and shrink. Reposition the plant in more brightly lit space in your home, and fertilize it as normal.

A Pothos leaves will tell you whether it needs to be watered. If the edges of the leaf are brown and dry, it's time to give it a drink. If the leaves begin to droop then it's time to water.

Epipremnum (Pothos), a variety of heart-shaped leaves in green, white or yellow, is available. Popular varieties include "Marble Queen," which has striking white and green variations. Another variety that is popular is "Neon," which has green leaves that have red and yellow markings.

The lifespan of a Pothos is five to 10 years, but providing the right conditions and routine maintenance, it could prolong its life significantly. It is also extremely easy to propagate, making it a great option for beginners who want to grow.

Monstera

Monstera Deliciosa, also referred to as the Swiss cheese plant, or split-leaf philodendron is a well-loved indoor houseplant in temperate regions. It can also be grown outdoors in warmer climates, and is a well-loved landscaping plant. It is an extremely greedy plant and only needs to be occasionally watered to keep the soil dry.

A member of the Dracaena genus The monstera is known for its unusual-looking leaves with a strange web of holes that gives it the appearance like Swiss cheese. The fenestrations (also known as lobes or holes) appear on the leaves when they mature. In the wild, Monstera deliciosa produces fruit. However, it's difficult to get this plant to produce fruit in an indoor environment.

In contrast to most succulents, Monsteras are not able to thrive in cold temperatures and cannot survive in temperatures that are colder than an hour. They prefer tropical temperatures that are warm and similar to those of their rainforest habitats. This makes them an excellent choice for a conservatory or another sunny spot that's cool enough to avoid freezing and frost.

Monsteras are a vine plant that make use of aerial roots to ascend through the soil. In the wild, they often attach themselves to rocks or trees after growing on the forest floor for a while. This is the reason many plant owners put a the moss or trellis poles to their pots as the plant develops.

The moss rod, which is made of chicken wire or sphagnum that has been long-stranded will provide support to the plants and allow them to climb up instead of falling out of their pots. The pole can also help to deter pests like sap-sucking mealybugs and aphids as well as tiny cigar-shaped thrips which can cause damage to the plant's leaves.

To encourage a healthy, vigorous growth of the plant, you should repot it frequently and provide it with plenty of bright indirect sunlight. It can take some direct light however, it shouldn't be exposed to direct sunlight from dawn to dusk. A monstera that is exposed to the sun for prolonged periods can develop burnt leaves, and even die.

ZZ Plant

Zamioculcas zamiifolia, better known as the ZZ plant, made a big splash when it first hit the market and is considered to be one of the most simple house plants to care for. It's an excellent choice for dark spots in the home that most plants aren't able to thrive in, since it can thrive in any lighting conditions except direct sunlight. ZZ plants can grow quite tall houseplants - up to a metre or more - which is why they're ideal for larger pots and stand-up plants.

The ZZ plant's most significant disadvantage is that it's poisonous if consumed, therefore, keep it away from nibbling pets and children. Use gloves when handling the plant since it can cause irritation to your skin. It is rumored to cause cancer, but this has not been proven.

ZZ plants, as with all succulents, are easy to care for and grow. They don't require a lot of moisture, but they should be watered thoroughly and the soil must dry between waterings. Overwatering can result in root decay, so it's best to be on the safe side and avoid watering.

The best potting mix for them is a thick, well-draining mix with some perlite or sand to aid in drainage. They aren't a fast-growing houseplant and can last for years without repotted, however they'll need to be repotted when their roots start to peek out from the top of the soil.

Fertilize during the growing season using half-strength liquid fertilizer. This usually happens every other month, or once or twice during the summer months.

Look for Aphids, as you would with any other indoor plant. Check for spindly stems that are leggy and long, and yellow patterns or spots on the leaves (see above photo). The leaves are also susceptible to mold and rot so don't ignore these warning signs and let them go out of hand.

The plants require a small amount of humidity, but can be used in normal house temperatures. The leaves will be dust-free when you regularly mist them. This is not just to enhance the appearance of your home but it also helps them function as air purifying plants.

Kentia Palm

The kentia (Howea) palm is a stunning and easy to maintain plant that is easy to maintain. It has been a popular houseplant in many houses of the royal and aristocratic since Victorian times. This is due to its ability to grow in a variety of conditions including low sunlight exposure and air conditioning as well as central heating. It's also quite resistant to neglect, making it a great choice for novice gardeners.

Kentias prefer bright, indirect sunlight. They will tolerate some shade, but direct light can burn their leaves. They dislike draughty areas so try to avoid them near windows which are usually shut and opened.

The kentia plant requires soil that is nutritious and well-draining. A mix of perlite, peat and potting soil will be a good soil mix. Plant your kentia plant in a pot that has drainage holes. Water thoroughly when the top ten centimetres of compost is dry. Overwatering can cause root rot. It is also recommended to let the soil dry a bit before watering again.

You can prune the fronds of your kentia palm in order to maintain its shape, and also remove dead leaves as they appear. Pruning should be carried out with care as too many fronds removed could damage the trunk and expose the plant to disease. If you decide to trim using shears, ensure that they have a an even cutting surface. Also, remove the leaf bases from their base instead of removing them. This can leave permanent marks.

A kentia is susceptible to pests such as spider mites, mealybugs and scale insects. Cleaning the fronds regularly with a cloth or sponge can help to prevent these problems from happening. If they do occur, try spraying the plant with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
