Note
1
Orchid
Water
Water deeply but infrequently, allowing the potting mix to dry slightly between waterings.
2
Dracaena
Water
Water thoroughly, allowing 50-75% of the soil to dry before watering again. Reduce frequency in low light and winter.
3
Jade Plant
Water
Prefers infrequent watering; allow soil to dry out completely between waterings. Drought-tolerant, sensitive to overwatering.
4
Pothos (Devil’s Ivy)
Water
Prefers the soil to dry out between waterings. Water roughly every 1-2 weeks, adjusting for light and temperature conditions.
5
Pothos (Devil’s Ivy)
Sunlight
Thrives in bright, indirect light but can adapt to lower light conditions. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves.
6
Pothos (Devil’s Ivy)
Temperature
Prefers temperatures between 60°F to 80°F (15°C to 26°C). Avoid exposure to temperatures below 50°F (10°C) as it can harm the plant.
7
Pothos (Devil’s Ivy)
Humidity
Grows best in higher humidity but can tolerate average home humidity levels. Mist occasionally for optimal health.
8
Pothos (Devil’s Ivy)
Fertilizer
Fertilize once a month during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
9
Pothos (Devil’s Ivy)
Repotting
Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix to encourage health and growth.
10
Spider Plant
Water
Prefers well-watered soil but not soggy. Allow the top 50% of soil to dry before the next watering. Somewhat drought tolerant and forgiving of occasional missed watering.
11
Calathea Pink Star
Water
Prefers evenly moist soil without being waterlogged. It's sensitive to fluoride and salts in tap water, so use distilled or rainwater if possible.
12
Calathea Pink Star
Sunlight
Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sun can fade the colors and damage the leaves.

16
Calathea Pink Star
Temperature
Likes warm environments, typical of its native tropical habitat. Avoid temperatures below 60°F (15°C).
17
Calathea Pink Star
Humidity
Thrives in high humidity. If the air is too dry, the leaf edges may brown.
18
Calathea Pink Star
Fertilizer
Feed with a balanced fertilizer every month during the growing season (spring and summer). Do not fertilize in winter.
19
Calathea Pink Star
Repotting
Repot every 1-2 years in the spring, or when the plant outgrows its pot. Use a potting mix designed for indoor plants with good drainage.
20
Calathea Pink Star
Special Needs
Room to move! They're known for their nyctinastic movements, meaning they move their leaves up at night and down during the day, which is a characteristic feature of plants in this genus.
21
Spider Plant
Sunlight
Thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sun can scorch leaves, while low light may reduce vigor. Adaptable to various lighting conditions.
22
Spider Plant
Temperature
Enjoys room temperatures between 60°F to 80°F (15°C to 26°C). Protect from cold drafts and extreme heat.
23
Spider Plant
Humidity
Performs well in average home humidity. Higher humidity is appreciated but not required. Can benefit from misting.
24
Spider Plant
Fertilizer
Fertilize monthly during spring and summer with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Reduce frequency in fall and winter.
25
Spider Plant
Repotting
Prefers to be slightly root-bound. Repot every 2-3 years or when roots are crowded, using a well-draining potting mix.
26
Spider Plant
Propagation
Spider plants are known for producing "pups" or "spiderettes," which are baby plants that hang down from the mother plant on long stems. These can be easily propagated by placing them in soil or water until they develop their own roots.
27
Jade Plant
Sunlight
Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate direct sunlight. Needs a few hours of sunlight to maintain health and color.
28
Jade Plant
Temperature
Prefers average room temperatures, 60°F to 75°F (15°C to 24°C). Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
29
Jade Plant
Humidity
Low humidity is adequate, typical of most home environments. Does not require additional humidity.
30
Jade Plant
Fertilizer
Fertilize sparingly, about once every 6 months during the growing season with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.
31
Jade Plant
Repotting
Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes top-heavy or pot-bound. Use a well-draining succulent mix.
32
Dracaena
Sunlight
Prefers bright, indirect sunlight but can adapt to low light conditions. Avoid direct sun to prevent leaf burn.
33
Dracaena
Temperature
Thrives in average room temperatures between 65-80°F (18-29°C). Avoid exposure to temperatures below 55°F (13°C).
34
Dracaena
Humidity
Does well in average humidity; benefits from regular misting to replicate its tropical habitat.
35
Dracaena
Fertilizer
Feed with a liquid fertilizer once a month during spring and summer. No fertilizer needed in winter.
36
Dracaena
Repotting
Repot every 2-3 years or when roots outgrow the pot. Use a well-draining potting mix.
37
Orchid
Sunlight
Prefer bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can burn the leaves.
38
Orchid
Temperature
Ideal temperatures range from 60-80°F. Protect from extreme heat or cold.
39
Orchid
Humidity
Thrive in high humidity, around 40-70%. Use a humidifier or pebble tray to increase humidity.
40
Orchid
Fertilizer
Fertilize weakly, weekly during the growing season with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.
41
Orchid
Repotting
Generally needed every 2-3 years or when the potting medium breaks down. Use an orchid-specific potting mix.
