How much light does an Areca Palm need?
Areca Palm does best in bright, indirect light, ideally between 10,000 and 20,000 lux. In a UK home, a spot near an east-facing or west-facing window is ideal. It tolerates lower light better than many palms but grows noticeably slower in dim conditions. Avoid strong direct afternoon sun, which scorches the thin fronds and causes brown, papery patches.
Why Does My Plant Have Brown Leaf Tips?
Brown leaf tips are one of those things that drives plant owners absolutely mad, especially when the rest of the plant looks perfectly healthy. You've been watering regularly, the plant is growing, and yet every leaf has that crispy brown edge that makes the whole thing look a bit tatty.
Signs Your Plant Needs More Water
There's been a lot of (justified) emphasis on not overwatering houseplants, but underwatering is a real problem too. The worry about overwatering can make people overly cautious, especially with non-succulent plants that genuinely do need regular water. Prayer plants, boston ferns, maidenhair ferns, and peace lilies will wilt rapidly if they dry out too much, and repeated severe drying damages the roots over time.
What are the best plants for bathrooms?
Most people don't think of their bathroom as a plant habitat, but for quite a few species it's actually close to ideal. Bathrooms tend to be warm, humid from showers and baths, and in the UK they're often lit by a frosted window that gives soft, indirect light, exactly what many tropical plants prefer. The main challenges are the temperature swings between a steamy shower and a cold morning, and the fact that many UK bathrooms don't have operable windows, which can limit air circulation. Light can also be an issue in smaller bathrooms or those with north-facing windows. But there are plants here that handle all of those conditions well.
How do I propagate a Spider Plant?
Spider Plants produce small plantlets on long runners that are easy to propagate. Wait until the babies have visible root nubs, then either root them in water, pin them into compost while still attached to the mother plant, or cut and pot directly into moist compost. Late spring to summer is the best time, and larger plantlets root faster than small ones.

A trailing plant is often a fantastic and easy way to introduce greenery and foliage in a small space. They are also a must if you are looking to bring tropical, jungle vibes into your home. A cascading indoor plant can be hung in hanging plant pots or positioned on a shelf allowing them to hang over.
With a clean, minimalistic look becoming ever more popular – hanging your foliage in a wall or ceiling mounted plant hanger brings a little zen into your home without cluttering the surfaces.
Many hanging house plants filter toxins from the air, whilst some even improve the humidity in your home. Indoor plants are good for you! Encourage an atmosphere of calm with a wonderful trailing house plant.
