Indoor plants need a little extra TLC in winter, and Whitehead Landscaping is here to guide you.
Indoor Plant Care Tips for Winter
- Adjust Watering: As temperatures drop, plants need less water. Allow the topsoil to dry out between watering to prevent overwatering.
- Increase Sunlight Exposure: Move plants closer to windows to make the most of limited winter sunlight. Southern-facing windows are ideal if available.
- Dust Off Leaves: Dust can block sunlight, so gently clean leaves with a damp cloth to maximize light absorption.
- Regulate Temperature: Keep plants cozy but avoid placing them near drafts, heaters, or fireplaces, as extreme temperature shifts can harm them.
- Check Humidity Levels: Winter air is drier, so consider placing a small humidifier nearby or setting plants on a tray with water and pebbles for added moisture.
By following these simple steps, you can enjoy a vibrant indoor garden all winter long. Whitehead Landscaping is here to provide more guidance on keeping your home green and lively, no matter the season!
