Why does my plant look different to the one on your site?

Plant Care
Help! My plant looks like it is dying
Firstly, don't panic! Have you looked at our detailed care instructions on our online store?
This will explain the individual care and any special requirements needed by your plant. Most indoor plants that are loved but don’t look too good are usually over-watered. A little water, regularly is always better 😊
I'm new to plant parenthood. What are the easiest care plants?
When it comes to selecting a plant for your home, we recommend considering the environment i.e: is your room south or north facing? Does it get a lot of light? Is it prone to drafts? This research will help you in choosing the best plant for that particular environment.
For spaces with lots of light, consider a Ficus.
An Air plant is an excellent choice for a bright bathroom window.
Spider Plants or Devil’s Ivy thrive well on shelves or bookcase as they require less light and can withstand irregular watering.
You can shop all of our easy-care plants on our online store
How often should I water my plant?
Confused about how much water your plant is getting? If you are unsure, take a look at what your plant is doing.
Wilting leaves or soil that looks pulled away from the sides of its planter are signs of a thirsty plant. Check the compost 5cm from the top, if there is any sign of moisture or dampness, it has enough water. You can also check by lifting the plant and container- if it’s light, this will let you know it needs some water.
A watering schedule of once a fortnight is suitable for most common houseplants however this can change throughout the year. In the winter, plants are growing slower and need less water. Be mindful that if your heat is on regularly, the soil can tend to dry quicker and may need a little more water.
Lastly,we recommend purchasing a simple spray bottle which can be used to give a quick burst of hydration around the leaves, they’ll love it!
Care advice for all of our plants can be found on our Online Plant Store
How much light should I give my plant?
When it comes to plants, some need more light than others. When in doubt, it's best to think about the native habitat of your plant.
Most indoor plants are used to a much warmer, brighter climate than the one we experience here in Ireland! However, all is not lost! Did you know that artificial light can be a great substitute for natural light?!
For plants located in a darker space of your home, simply shine a spotlight or table lamp towards your plants and you will notice that they start to grow towards it! For plants that are located near regular sunlight sources such as a window, make sure to rotate this plant regularly to ensure even distribution.
You can view care advice for each of our plants on our online store!
Where can I find plant care instructions for my new plant?
Care instructions and a care level rating for each of our plants can be found in the description of each plant listing on our online store.
