It’s no secret that I’ve been a wee bit obsessed with plants lately. After taking a good look at my interior and realizing that multiple areas of my home are a bit bare, I’m convinced that a few houseplant purchases will help breathe new life into my living room, bedroom, powder room and home office. I’m fairly good at keeping plants alive, but when I get busy, I tend to be forgetful about watering. And sometimes I water all of the plants the same way, without paying attention to their individual needs. Okay, so maybe I’m not the best at tending to my plants! But lately I’ve gotten some helpful advice.

For starters, several of my favorite blogs have recently featured posts on caring for houseplants. I’ve picked up some wonderful tips over the last couple of months. Also, the nurseries where I buy many of my plants are staffed with experts who are great at giving advice on caring for plants, both indoor and out. Finally, my obsession with DIY projects featuring pots and planters has helped motivate me to put as much thought into my plants as I put into crafting their containers.

I’ve included helpful links in the text below, which will lead you to additional articles and posts for more information. May the suggestions and ideas that follow inspire you to incorporate more plant life into your home…
