[New] GARDEN CHAT WITH CHOOK, FROM GREENBOURNE NURSERY...THE NOISE ON THE NURSERY
✦ Firstly, please let me welcome you all to 2023. I trust you either had a great time with friends and family over the holiday period or you got a little bit of rest and contemplation in your garden. I hope 2023 is a great year in the garden for everyone.
This Month I would like to offer a little Indoor Plant Advice.
Don’t over water…
Many indoor plant deaths occur due to receiving too much water. A plant in a protected indoor environment is much less likely to transpire large amounts of water through its foliage. Hence you don’t need to be watering the plant every day as many of us do and have (I’ve been guilty of this too!).
vThe best advice for most indoor plants is to quickly check the soil with your fingertip and assess the moisture content. The basic rule here is that the soil only needs to be on the dryer side of moist.
