A houseplant is a plant that is grown indoors in places such as houses and offices. Houseplants are commonly grown for decorative purposes and health reasons such as indoor air purification.*
Caring for a houseplant
Major factors that should be considered when caring for houseplants are moisture, light, soil mixture, temperature, humidity, fertilizers, potting, and pest control. The following includes some general guidelines for houseplant care. For specific houseplant needs, check the tag that sometimes comes with a plant, the package, or find care instructions for the species in a book or online.
Moisture
Both under-watering and over-watering can be detrimental to a houseplant. The best way to determine whether a plant needs water is to check the soil moisture. To do this, feel the soil on the surface and slightly below the surface. Soil moisture can range from very damp (as it would feel just after watering) to very dry. Typically, a houseplant needs to be watered about once a week, though setting a rigid watering schedule is not recommended. If a plant does need to be watered, pour water evenly over the surface of the soil until it begins to drain out the bottom of the pot, ensuring complete saturation. More on [ Houseplant ]
