What's the best way to take care of a house plant?

I have a few in my apartment. I have two 10' Majestic palm ones and a few of those plants that you buy in the Asian markets. What do I generally need to do to keep them alive?

What's the best way to take care of a house plant?
house plants usually come from growing under a canopy in a tropical/subtropical area, so they're used to high humidity. the best way to supply this is to set them on a bed of smooth pebbles, add water to the pebbles, but not enough that the plant can soak it up through the bottom, as the water dissipates, moisture is added to the area around the plant. make sure the water is there all the time during low humidity seasons especially. spraying them daily has never worked for me.



supply fertilizer starting in spring and stop as it's getting cooler- they don't need it during the colder months, they rest then. some plants don't like to be pot bound, some do- find out which your plants prefer and pot them up, to a pot no more than 2" bigger in diameter, when necessary.



i've found one of the best tools that really helped me is a water/light probe. i found one in a garden center and paid about $25-30 for it. it is a nice tool because it comes with a list of the most common house plants and good info on how much water, how often (whether it needs to dry out a bit before watering), and you can switch it to the light meter to see how much light it's getting. very useful



hope this helps
Reply:They need light ,moisture,plant food and lots of patience. Some of the palms like a gentle mist to their leaves. Be sure not to overdo water and plant food.I also have soft music on or else talk to my house plants, believe me they seem to like it. Good luck with your house plants.They sound pretty.
