As an indoor plant hire company, we have learnt many tips and tricks for keeping our plants healthy. Whether they need direct sunlight or indirect sunlight, how to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, or accommodating for small or large plants, we know the ins and outs of what your plant needs.
The amount of water your office plants need differs based on the types of plants you choose to have in your space. Not enough water will obviously kill your plant, but overwatering can have exactly the same effect.
If you’re looking for an indoor plant that will do well in low light, look no further! Indoor plants are typically native to forests and accustomed to living beneath a canopy. They don’t need much sunlight and usually grow slowly, making them ideal office plants since most windows in offices provide very little natural light.
Office plants can suffer when exposed to dry or dusty environments, so make sure to keep an eye on them. If you notice the leaves losing colour or dropping, it may be due to low air temperature.
If you want your plants to live a long and healthy life, it’s important to choose the right potting mix and planter. Look for a soil mix that has enough room for air and water circulation – this will promote strong root growth.
Don’t think that because your plants live indoors they can’t get pests. The most frequent indoor plant pests are scale and mealy bugs, and if your plants are under stress, the scale is more likely to occur. Scale appears as small brown bumps on plant leaves.
Most importantly, if you want your indoor plants to thrive, create a care plan for them and post it in a common area. This way, everyone can see who is responsible for taking care of the office plants.
