Caring for Your Tropical Treasures

Maintaining a thriving indoor tropical garden may seem daunting, but with Idyl's expert guidance, it's easier than you think. Here are some key tips to keep your plants happy and healthy:

• Provide the right amount of light: Most tropical plants prefer bright, indirect light, but be mindful of their specific needs.
• Water wisely: Avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Instead, check the soil moisture and water when the top inch or two is dry.
• Maintain the right humidity: Tropical plants thrive in humid environments, so consider using a pebble tray or a humidifier to keep the air moist.
• Fertilize regularly: Feed your plants with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every few weeks during the growing season.
• Prune and clean: Regularly remove any dead or damaged leaves to keep your plants looking their best.
