Plant Care & Propagation

In my earlier post on creating humidity for houseplants, I did an in-depth review of easy ways to create humidity for your houseplants, and I briefly listed a few common houseplants that really like humidity.

I’m going to give a quick refresher on the easiest ways to create humidity for your plants, and then I’m going to go more in depth into some common houseplants that thrive off of humidity.

In this post, we’ll discuss everything you need to know about watering your plants.

In this post, we’ll discuss propagation tips, common questions, and how to propagate five ridiculously easy plants so that you can get started creating new plants right away.
