01

Indoor plant care

Check the real light

Watch where daylight lands over a full day and across seasons. A bright room may still have a dim corner. Move plants gradually when conditions change and watch the new growth for clues.

Indoor plant care

Water with evidence

Feel the mix below the surface and consider pot size, temperature and season. Empty standing water from decorative covers when appropriate. Yellow leaves alone do not prove one cause; check several conditions before changing care.

03

Indoor plant care

Repot only when needed

Look for crowded roots, fast-drying mix or poor structure before moving to a larger pot. Increase container size modestly and use a suitable mix. A much larger pot can hold more water than the roots use.
