My job in the interior landscape industry taught me how to care for houseplants. I can help you give the best care for your own indoor, potted plants. Indoor plants are adaptable as long as changes in their care and environment are made slowly. Caring for indoor, tropical houseplants in many different environments has taught me how to keep a plant in good condition for as long as possible, even when it is in less than desirable growing conditions.

A few important things I have learned about caring for interior landscape plants are that providing good care for your plants and flowers requires attending to them on a regular schedule. Choosing plants that are well suited for growing indoors makes a world of difference. Starting with a healthy plant, one with a good root system and healthy stems and foliage, will also make it much easier to keep your plant healthy and growing.

Working in the interior landscape industry, I have gotten a lot of questions from people about their personal houseplants. It is nice to be able to help them keep their indoor houseplants growing and healthy. That is why I started this website, to help others with their houseplant and flower care.

If you are trying to find a good, first houseplant and don’t know what to buy, check out my list of best indoor houseplants. If you have never had indoor plants before you might want to start with something like a Mother-In-Law Tongue plant, as it is a very easy indoor plant to care for. I have some pictures of a few of the easiest houseplants further in the page. Most should be available at your local plant nursery, home improvement store, or garden center.

If you have an indoor, tropical houseplant but you are not sure what type of plant you have, check this page of pictures indoor houseplants and flowers with names of plants and links to page with care of indoor houseplant. I am still working on getting as many common indoor, tropical houseplant pictures added to this page as I can. Hope you can find your plant there.
