One of my favourite #GreenParent tips is to keep your potted plants clear of dead branches, withered leaves/flowers, dry twigs. Prune your plants so they have room to grow instead of having to fight for sunlight & air. I also wash out trays & sweep under every couple of weeks.
You can really tell how loved a plant is, by its leaves. Chemical boosters make flower growth spurts & sometimes plants wither after that. But leaves tell you the health of the plant. Spray them with water in the day if you’re in a dusty place to keep them fresh. #GreenParent

New plants. Here’s hoping.
My old plants have died or are languishing. It feels like a reflection of my own health & state of mind.
Wish us well. The plants are Mint, Basil, Aloe Vera, Hibiscus & Button Roses.
