Tall containers can be tricky when your plant doesn’t quite reach the top.

Yes — you can flip an empty nursery container upside down to create extra lift. I’ve done it before, and it works in a pinch.

But I’ve found they can shift over time, especially with heavier plants or after watering. The last thing I want is movement inside a planter that’s holding a big, heavy plant.

I prefer using something built to handle the weight — it feels more secure, more intentional, and it comes in multiple sizes so you can match it to different pots and plants.

And after lifting that thing into place… I’m not redoing it. 💪🌿

Caring for a Monstera Thai Constellation means giving it the right light, the right pot, and the right soil 🌿
These beauties love a chunky, airy mix that lets their roots breathe.

Here’s what I used:
• 1 part orchid bark
• 1 part perlite
• 1 part Fox Farm organic soil

Repotted it into a clear glass planter with drainage — clean, simple, and no soggy soil 🤍

Don’t toss your orchid just because the flowers disappeared. With the right care, it can come back even stronger and bloom all over again. 🌸

Fresh media, steady nutrients, and a careful prune can completely change the future of your plant.

20 years ago I never would’ve guessed this would be my life, but honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way 💚

My soil recipe is equal parts Fox Farm soil, perlite, and orchid bark! 🌱

A lot of plants struggle after coming home, and this is usually why.
The growing medium they’re sold in is designed for transport and store displays, not for long-term growth.

That dense mix stays wet far too long, which can slowly weaken the roots and create issues over time.

I’m resetting this one the right way.
Clearing away the old material, giving it more space in a nursery pot, and planting it in a chunky, airy blend that supports healthy root development.

Your new fiddle leaf fig deserves the best start — and it all begins before it even comes inside.

Here are the 3 things I always do first:

1️⃣ Check and refresh the soil. Bad soil = unhappy fiddle. Soak the root ball, remove the old soil, and repot into fresh well-draining soil with good drainage.
2️⃣ Clean the leaves. Soak, clean, and wipe them down so they can actually breathe and absorb light.
3️⃣ Don’t prune just yet. I know it’s tempting but wait 4 to 6 weeks — pruning too soon will stress it out.

Once it’s pest-free, it comes inside immediately and finds a bright indirect light spot. 🌞

Save this for the next time you bring home a fiddle leaf fig. 🌿

Okay this @vego self watering planter had my tomatoes absolutely POPPING. 🍅🌱
I was blown away by how fast they grew — but honestly living in Houston’s sun didn’t hurt either! ☀️ The best part? I only had to refill the water tank once or twice a week and the planter did the rest. Basically hands off… as long as you actually check your moisture meter 😂

Want a fuller, healthier fiddle leaf fig?

If your plant looks thin or slow growing, a few simple changes can turn it around fast.

Light matters most
The brighter the indirect light, the larger and healthier your leaves will be.
Keep it close to a window so it gets strong light all day.

Trim it back
Regular cuts signal the plant to branch out.
More branches give you that full, lush look.

Feed it weekly
Do not wait for a season.
A light, consistent fertilizer keeps steady growth going.

Now available in 13.65 inches and comes as a set of 3 with trays. 🌱

Bird of Paradise don’t always look stressed when they need a new pot — sometimes they simply run out of space.

Signs it’s time to size up include roots circling the pot, soil drying out faster than usual, slowed leaf growth, or the container starting to feel tight and unstable. When roots don’t have room, the plant can’t support continued healthy growth.

Moving up just a couple inches and refreshing the soil gives roots space to expand and helps the plant stay strong over time.

New plant = immediate action 😬 Especially when it’s a Dracaena Marginata.

Here’s how I handle it:
• The plant goes outside and stays separate from the rest of my collection
• I soak the root ball to flush out anything hiding in the pot
• I mist the leaves with a Dr. Bronner’s mix to remove residue and discourage pests
• I finish by watering with biological mosquito control, which breaks the fungus gnat life cycle in the soil

Dr. Bronner’s spray recipe:
¼–½ tsp Dr. Bronner’s
• 1 quart (4 cups) water

Most people assume large indoor plants come with a high price tag — but that’s not always the case.

This Bird of Paradise was purchased small for under $5 and turned into a major statement within a year.

Compared to many houseplants, this one grows noticeably faster when it’s getting the right amount of sunlight and consistent care.

Beginner-friendly.
Easy to find.
Rewarding growth in a short timeframe.

Push the spike into your soil, add water to the bottom of the outer pot, and it slowly wicks moisture up to the roots automatically. No complicated setup, nothing fancy.

One important tip: let all the water fully absorb before refilling, and wait for the soil to dry out between waterings. This keeps roots healthy and prevents rot.

They also come in different sizes so they work for everything from tiny herbs to larger houseplants.

Fill it up before you leave and your plants are covered while you’re away. 🌴

3 reasons I love snake plants:
• They purify the air and release oxygen at night—perfect for bedrooms 😴
• Super low maintenance (I water about once a month)
• They tolerate low light but grow even better with more light

I’m repotting this one into a chunky @solsoils succulent gritty mix to keep drainage on point and roots happy 🌱

Easy plant. Less stress. More green.

Bringing three rubber trees together in one planter sounds bold. It can work. But only if you set them up right.

Start with the roots
Rinse off that heavy nursery soil. It holds too much moisture and can lead to root rot. Clean roots give you a fresh start.

Use the right planter
Go wide and deep so each tree has space. This is what gives you that full, sculptural look.

Build a chunky soil mix
• Fox Farm organic soil
• Perlite
• Orchid bark

This combo drains fast and keeps roots healthy.

Add support early
Use a pole and soft Velcro ties. This helps train the trees to grow upright and together from day one.

Place with intention
Space the trees evenly. Think balance, not crowding. Fill in with your mix as you go.

Secure and finish
Gently tie the trunks for stability. Keep it snug, not tight.

That’s it. Now you have one full, statement plant instead of three separate ones.

I’ve been using this on my table as a centerpiece, but you could easily style it on a windowsill or counter too.

I planted Blue My Mind in it and I’m obsessed.

It’s also resistant to cracks, fading, and UV, so it holds up and still looks good over time.

Tall plants fix empty corners fast.

Here are four that are easy and reliable.
1. Money Tree
Bright, indirect light.
Water deeply, then let it dry a bit.
Remove the nursery tape as it grows.
2. Rubber Tree
Bright to medium light.
Water when the top inch dries.
Wipe leaves to keep them clean and glossy.
3. Bird of Paradise
More light gives bigger leaves.
Let soil fully dry before watering.
Rotate for even growth.
4. Fiddle Leaf Fig
Give it bright, indirect light.
Water when the top 2 to 3 inches are dry.
Stay consistent and it stays easy.
