Sometimes called the “Bunny Ear” Cactus due to its multi branching growths or the “Blind Prickly Pear”. This is a popular beginner cactus as it is easy to grow if a you can provide enough bright light, no over-watering, provide its winter resting period and average room temperatures. In short, keep it by a window and don’t water it for half a year. Simple! Light and Water This plant requires full light for growing for most of the year, except during the winter cycle. For the plant's health, light should be reduced to partial sun during this time. This Cactus is a desert species. It should be given water on a regular basis during its first season in a new pot. This will help it to create a strong root system. The soil should be kept moist, but not soggy. After the first season, more sporadic watering is required. During the winter cycle, the cactus should not be watered at all, with watering to resume in the early spring.
Famed for its healing properties within its fleshy leaves. The Aloe Vera is a welcome addition to space adding a stylish touch as well being very low maintenance, the perfect houseguest! Light and Water Place your Aloe Vera in a spot with lots of bright light, but avoid too much direct sunlight during the summer, and in a warm place away from drafts. The leaves hold a lot water, so it doesn’t need frequent watering. When it does, it should be water thoroughly and only when the soil is fully dry.
The Haworthia Fasciata or “Zebra Plant” is a common household succulent. It’s perfect for beginners, be-cause it grows well indoors when taken care of properly. It also propagates easily, which makes it perfect for arrangements or gifts. This succulent is also great for your indoor succulent garden. It has thick, dark green leaves with white horizontal stripes on the outside of the leaves. Light and Water Display this plant anywhere it can receive plenty of direct sunlight or bright light. During the growing season from April - September water the plant thoroughly and then water when the soil becomes dry to the touch. It’s best to use the “soak and dry” method. Fully soaking the soil but watering from above or submerging and allowing the soil to dry out completely between watering sessions. Winter is a tricky time for these plants although they are a tough species. Many growers will overwater then alongside cold temperatures or drafts the plant can become very sick, or even die. The leaves are storage organs so during the winter water much less and allow the topsoil to dry out.

The Turtle Vine is a cute little trailing vine adorned with small round ‘turtle’ like leaves running along the length. Not to be confused with the similarly named “String of turtles” or Peperomia Prostrata, this vine is a cascading low-growing plant and has a lot more foliage which is densely packed. It grows quickly and is fairly hardy, needing monitoring when it comes to their water level. Light and Water Bright indirect light is best, avoiding prolonged exposure to the sun, especially in the summer. Always maintain evenly moist soil and average room humidity is acceptable. If you see any signs of dehydration, introduce more humidity with regular misting or a water tray. The Turtle vine loves moist soil - once the pot begins to feel light when lifted, it's time for another water. Under-watering symptoms include crispy/curling leaves, a grey, washed-out appearance, yellowing leaves and a lack of new growth. These issues are commonly down to either too much heat/light forgetfulness. Dehydration is the number one issue among growers, so always keep an eye out for drying soil. Over-watering symptoms, on the other hand, include yellowing lower leaves, little to no growth and a rotting stem or leaves. Never allow your plat to endure long periods of soggy soil or a dark location as both will significantly increase the chance of over-watering and death.
A graceful and attractive palm, with closely growing upright stems and long arching linear leaves that will create a handsome focal point in any room. Still one of the most popular houseplants and it is easy to see why as it is so versatile and easy to look after. This palm does best in warm, humid conditions. A popular houseplant, the Areca palm is fairly easy to care for as long as you don’t over-water it. Although it is a heavy feeder, its fronds may yellow if it is over-fertilized. Don’t be alarmed about sooty flecks that develop on the palm’s sheaths as they occur naturally and are not a sign of disease or pests. Light and Water Although they like a warm atmosphere don't place it near a radiator or heat source and choose a brightly lit spot but not in direct sun. A bright indirect light spot will suit it best. Water regularly through the growing season with soft water, or rainwater but let the surface of the soil dry out slightly before watering again. Reduce watering through the winter months. These plants need humidity so mist the leaves regularly or stand on a tray of damp pebbles with some water. Lastly wipe of any dust from the palm fronds/leaves from time to time and trim off fronds/leaves if they yellow and dry out.
The Parlour Palm was popular with the Victorians being display in their parlour rooms when entertaining guests (hence their common name) and remains a firm favourite to this day. An elegant plant, easy to look after, with excellent air purifying qualities. They are undemanding in terms of light, water, temperature, humidity and feed, making them perfect for those of us that like low-maintenance plants. With their bright green leaves on clusters of long slender arching stems, this plant is a classic indoor favourite. Light and Water They are shade tolerant and brighter, indirect sunlight will encourage flowering. They can also tolerate some dry, indoor air, but does better with a little extra humidity and will appreciate the occasional misting with lukewarm water. This will also help keep the leaves free of dust. Brown leaf tips are an indication that the plant is not getting enough humidity.
