Most people don’t realize that the size of the pot can completely change how a plant looks in a space. A simple rule I follow. Choose a pot that’s about 1/3 the height of the plant. My 80 inch Bird of Paradise works perfectly with this planter, and the proportions are well balanced.

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.

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. 💪🌿

A little drooping after repotting is completely normal. Your plant is adjusting to its new home, and a few simple steps can help it recover and start putting out healthy new growth.

#LTKHome #LTKOver40 #LTKmomlife

This is the base soil mix I use for most of my houseplants, and it has made repotting so much easier.

My recipe:
🌿 1 part potting soil
🤍 1 part perlite
🪵 1 part orchid bark

Why I love it:
• Potting soil holds moisture and nutrients.
• Perlite improves drainage and keeps the mix light.
• Orchid bark adds airflow and helps prevent compacted soil.

From there, I make small adjustments depending on the plant.

For example:
🌱 Monstera: I add a little extra orchid bark for even more airflow and drainage.
🌿 Peace lily: I add a little more potting soil because they prefer to stay evenly moist.
🌸 Hoya: I add a little extra perlite and orchid bark since they like a chunkier, faster draining mix.

Having a big batch mixed and stored in a sealed container means I’m always ready when a plant needs repotting.

#LTKHome #LTKdayinmylife #LTKmomlife

Bright light is important, but it’s only part of the equation.

Monsteras are natural climbers, so giving them something sturdy to grow up can make a big difference as they mature. When you combine good light with the right support, you’re setting your plant up for its best growth.

It takes time, but it’s so worth it when those bigger, more mature leaves start showing up. 💚

Can we talk about how pretty orchids look in glass? 🌸

That was honestly the biggest reason I wanted to try water culture. I love being able to see the roots instead of hiding them inside a pot. It makes the whole plant feel so much more elegant.

I switched this one while it was still blooming, and it adapted so well. Now it’s one of my favorite pieces of decor in the house. 🌿

A little pruning can completely change the shape of your fiddle leaf fig.

Whether you pinch the newest growth or make a clean cut above a node, you’re encouraging the plant to develop a fuller canopy over time.

Don’t expect overnight results. New branches take time, but the wait is worth it.

I always get asked where I find large clear nursery pots for my bigger plants — and after searching everywhere, this is the widest one I’ve found at 11.65 inches. They come in a pack of 3 and each pot includes its own tray (which I love).

Clear nursery pots are ideal because you can actually monitor what’s happening below the soil line. You can catch overwatering issues early, see how established the plant is, and know when it’s truly time to size up. It takes the guesswork out of plant care.

They’re especially helpful for monsteras, fiddle leaf figs, rubber trees — any plant where drainage and root health really matter.

🌱 Water runs straight through the pot
🌱 You’re watering more often than usual
🌱 Growth has slowed during the growing season

If you’re like me and not a total expert at outdoor gardening, this self-watering elevated rolling planter from @vego_garden makes things so much easier.

The built-in water reservoir helps keep the soil evenly hydrated, so you’re not constantly guessing when to water or worrying about getting it exactly right. It basically takes one of the hardest parts of gardening and simplifies it.

I also love that it’s elevated (no bending over!) and on wheels, so you can easily move it around to find the best sunlight for your plants ☀️🌱

If you want to grow herbs, veggies, or flowers without feeling like you need to be a gardening pro, this is such a great setup.

I have tried propagating so many fiddle leaf figs in water, and honestly, they never worked for me. 😅

This was my first time trying it in these window planters, and it was a total success! Not only did the cuttings finally root, but I love having them displayed in the window where they get great light and stay safely out of the way. No more accidentally knocking over jars of water. 🙌

Healthy basil starts with the right nutrients. I’ve been using @BioGrowth_organics Catalyst, and it’s made such a difference in the size, color, and overall growth of my plants. It’s organic, simple to use, and helps support strong healthy roots and foliage.

A few other basil tips that really help:
• Give it plenty of sun
• Separate crowded basil plants before planting
• Snip stems instead of pulling leaves

Succulents are some of the most eye-catching plants in my collection.

I love the variety of colors, shapes, and textures they bring to a space. Whether they’re grouped together on a shelf or sitting alone on a table, they always seem to make a room feel more interesting.

One thing to keep in mind is that most succulents need plenty of bright indirect light to stay compact and colorful. If they aren’t getting enough light, they can start to stretch and lose the shape that makes them so beautiful.

Do you have a favorite succulent? 🌵✨

A lot of people think every fiddle leaf fig needs support, but that’s not always the case.

When they’re young, a little sway from airflow can actually help them grow stronger trunks. But as they get taller and those big leaves and branches add weight, they may need a little extra help staying upright.

My fiddle leaf fig did great on its own for years. It wasn’t until it reached about 8 feet tall that I decided to add support.

Drop a photo of your fiddle leaf fig in the comments. I love seeing all the different shapes, sizes, and personalities these trees have. 🌿💚 Comment SHINE for my favorite leaf shine 🍃and more!

That gorgeous orchid doesn’t have to be short-lived. With the right setup, those flowers can last for months.

A few extra tips while it’s flowering:

• Check the roots before adding water — not the calendar
• Let excess moisture fully escape the pot every time
• Keep it in a well-lit space without harsh rays hitting the leaves
• Avoid moving it around constantly — they love stability
• Keep it away from AC vents, heaters, and exterior doors
• If you feed, keep it very diluted and occasional

Orchids aren’t difficult — they just need the right environment. Once you understand what they’re asking for, they’re surprisingly easy.

Save this for later or share it with someone who just received one.

This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time. I honestly didn’t believe it until I tried it myself. The fact that the real leaves activate the glow is insane. It’s a smart planter with a built in light, and you can even dim it just by holding the leaf. Definitely one of those “you have to see it to believe it” products.

Comment CARE for links 🤍 LECA Monstera care made simple 🌿✨

I wait until the reservoir is completely dry before watering again.
Once dry, I rinse the @solsoils LECA thoroughly to flush out built-up salts and prevent mineral buildup around the roots.

After everything drains fully, I refill the reservoir with water, fertilizer, and a biological mosquito control to keep nutrients consistent and fungus gnats away.

I keep a small reservoir at the bottom so the roots can wick up moisture — without ever sitting in too much water.

She lives in front of my Barrina standing grow light for bright, consistent light, which keeps her happy and pushing new growth.

Small reservoir. Bright indirect light. Consistency. That’s the formula. 🌱
