]]> Millions of people worldwide suffer from sleep disorders, including insomnia and sleep apnea. While there are many remedies for improving sleep, one natural and easy solution is to add some plants to your bedroom that can help you sleep better. By adding these plants to your bedroom, you can create a calming and relaxing environment that promotes better sleep. Not only do they look great and add a natural touch to your decor, but they can also improve air quality and reduce stress levels.

Lavender

This fragrant herb has been used for centuries to help promote relaxation and reduce anxiety. Studies have shown that the scent of lavender can help reduce heart rate and blood pressure, leading to a more restful night’s sleep.

Jasmine

Like lavender, jasmine is a fragrant plant that can help promote relaxation and reduce anxiety. Its sweet aroma has been shown to improve sleep quality and increase alertness during the day.

Aloe Vera

Not only is aloe vera great for skin health, but it can also improve air quality by removing pollutants from the air. This can lead to a more peaceful and restful night’s sleep.

Snake Plant

Also known as the mother-in-law’s tongue, this plant is great for improving air quality and removing toxins from the air. It can also release oxygen at night, making it a great plant for improving sleep quality.

Valerian

This herb has been used for centuries as a natural remedy for sleep disorders. Its sedative properties can help promote relaxation and improve sleep quality.

]]> Succulents are truly beautiful and mysterious. But truth must be told, succulents are not suitable for growing indoors. Certainly not for long. The vast majority of them anyway.

Originally succulents are desert creatures and therefore need direct sunlight to thrive. In addition, it is quite difficult not to water them and most of them wither from excess soil moisture. Most succulents do not survive the first year at home, but if they do, you are expected to have a stunning green tenant in your home.

So how can this beautiful plant be successfully grown at home?

https://www.instagram.com/p/CFXJcfPHNWO/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

First of all, succulents are suitable for houses with a balcony or with windows that allow direct sunlight. Succulents need at least an hour or two of direct sunlight every day.

Succulents do not need a lot of water. Try not to water them even if the soil looks dry and even if you think the succulent is thirsty. Some succulents need watering only once a month. It may sound too little, but it really is the ideal amount of water for some of them.

Fertilization is a great way to protect your succulents. Choose an ecological fertilizer without chemicals, and pamper your succulents once a year with quality fertilizer.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CER008QnkMK/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

In many cities, home gardening is considered an integral part of the ongoing home maintenance and in different communities, the residents grow vegetables, herbs, and flowers together in the public garden or on the buildings’ roofs top.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CDMRThCnQ4K/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Home gardening does not have to be complicated, and in fact, anyone can easily grow and own some beautiful flowerpots at home without any unnecessary costs. All it takes are a few plants, suitable soil, pots, and water.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CEhOJoDhBiE/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Choose the types of plants that suit your living environment, both in terms of lighting conditions and size. If you live in a large apartment with high ceilings, small plants may get lost in the large space. If you live in a relatively small apartment, you can assemble a shelf and put small succulent plants on it that will decorate the space without burdening it.

]]> Have you been doing a lot of cooking over the past few weeks? Many recipes call for herbs, but wouldn’t it be awesome if you could use fresh herbs you’ve grown yourself? These five herbs are perfect garnishes for your dishes and you don’t need a green thumb to grow them!

Chives

Chives are one of the easiest herbs to grow indoors as they don’t require much light. Top off your salads, soups, sandwiches, potatoes, and eggs with this herb prior to serving.

Mint

Peppermint thrives in shade, but make sure it gets a little bit of light. You can add it to your greek yogurt bowls, make some amazing tea, top off of a salad, or add it to your favorite cocktails.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B_FEo6TFa8Q/

Parsley

Parsely is probably the most commonly used herb and once it gets growing, it doesn’t require much maintenance. If you love Middle Eastern cuisine such as bulgar and grape leaves, parsley is a must.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B_HbF6FArhN/

Oregano

Although it requires six to eight hours of sunlight a day, just place it by a well-lit window and it will thrive. Pizza, pasta, chicken, eggplant, potatoes, seafood—oregano goes with almost everything!

Basil

Basil is one of our favorite herbs, but it’s probably the most difficult to grow on this list, especially during the winter months. Now that summer is almost upon us, we’re ready to give it a go. Basil pairs great with olive oil, fruit, tomatoes, cheese, and garlic.

]]> Succulents have been having their moment for a while now and word on the street is that they’re easy to take care of. But, that actually isn’t true—succulents require some adjustment. These are the most common mistakes to avoid when caring for succulents and how to make them thrive.

Failing to Give Them Enough Light

Succulents thrive with lots of sunlight and water, which is hard to copy indoor. So make sure you choose the sunniest south-facing window or pick a more forgiving succulent like aloe.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CAkCoPZIHCN/?utm_source=ig_embed

Not Watering Them Enough

These plants are used to growing in the dessert, where when it rains it pours. So make sure when you water your plant, you let it soak until water comes out of the bottom of the pot.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CAkAsqZhLel/

Getting Standard Potting Soil

Succulents, unlike most potted plants, need a desert-dweller mix, which combines half potting soil with something inorganic like perlite.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CAiPQ69F-XJ/?utm_source=ig_embed

Overcrowding Them

People usually pack succulents into tiny, cute dishes, but this encourages mold and insect infestations. When overcrowded, they’ll also be competing for water and food which means some of them won’t be getting enough of what they need.

Growing Impractical Types

Some succulents aren’t meant to be grown inside, so stick with ones that can grow on your windowsill. Crassula, Sansevieria, and Mammillaria cacti are good choices for indoor plants.

]]> Are you besotted with the potted? Add a splash of color and life to your living space with an indoor pot plant that loves the same conditions you do. Here are six pot plants that are near impossible to kill.

Spider Plant

Spider plants grow quickly and their shoots produce new plants. They only need watering once per week and generally, the rule with spider plants is ‘the more, the better.’

https://www.instagram.com/p/B_dC2qWAiyl/

Guiana Chestnut

The Guiana Chestnut is better known by the name “the money tree”. It needs plenty of water and enjoys the sunlight. Other than that, it requires little care.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B4A04Cbgkp7/

Chinese Evergreen

Chinese Evergreen plants don’t need too much sunlight. They love water and if you overdo it, the plant will not drown.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B_vUG6JAjb_/

Chinese Money Plant

The Chinese Money Plant lives in the shade. It is identifiable by its flat, round leaves which have earned the foliage the nickname of “the pancake plant.”

https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Z-fzQnlCY/

Yucca

Yucca plants are happy living indoors, as long as they get plenty of sunlight. They also don’t require much water.

]]> Houseplants can really brighten up the house and make it feel like home. Unfortunately, not all of us are born with a green thumb but with these basic rules, you’ll be able to keep your plants alive and master the art of gardening.

Light

All plants, even the ‘low-light tolerant’ ones, need light. However, most plants thrive in indirect light, so it’s best to keep them near a window.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B8rmExOouth/

Fertilize

Most soils that we use don’t have all the nutrients our plants need, so we need to provide those through fertilizers. Buy the right fertilizer and read the instructions on how often your plant needs fertilizing and make sure to stick to that schedule.

Drainage

Proper drainage is critical because it prevents excess moisture that can cause your plant to root. To ensure adequate drainage it’s best to fill the bottom of your planter with stones, sprinkle charcoal on top and then add potting soil.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B8t73fkABQX/

Watering

The frequency of watering really depends on so many factors – the type of plant, the quantity of light, humidity, season and so on. That’s why it’s important to study the needs of your houseplant, or if you’re forgetful, you can get one of those low maintenance plants such as ZZ plant or succulents.

]]> There isn’t a better way to add a bit of color to your home than to decorate with a bunch of colorful indoor plants. However, before you bring these plants into your home, make sure they’re not poisonous to your pets.

Aloe Vera

Most of us love aloe plants and we use these gorgeous succulents for decorating our homes. Not to mention that Aloe Vera is widely known for its numerous health and beauty benefits. Unfortunately, this plant is toxic to our furry friends, so make sure to keep it out of their reach.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B8BNVewCK_W/

Branching ivy

Branching, or English ivy is a popular houseplant because it’s pretty low-maintenance and also purifies the air. Sadly, this nice plant is toxic to dogs and cats and symptoms of poisoning can include vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B5rvssHgZ-Q/

Philodendron

One of the most popular indoor plants, philodendron is toxic to both dogs and cats. Excessive drooling, vomiting, and difficulty in swallowing can be signs of potential poisoning, and if you notice any of them take your pet to the vet as soon as possible.

Peace Lily

The peace lily is one of the most adored indoor plants, thanks to its gorgeous white blooms. Don’t let its beauty confuse you and keep it out of reach of your pets because it’s extremely poisonous to cats and dogs.

]]> Not everyone naturally has a green thumb, but no matter your skill level, you too can be a plant parent! Having plants is such an important aspect in a living or working space because it not only improves air quality but having something growing and living in a space really makes it come alive.

If you don’t want to commit to a large plant that you feel like you might not be successful with, try this DIY plant that will brighten up all your spaces.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BwPFZO5gCAv/

First, find a plant that suits your style aesthetically but also in terms of care. A really good plant to start out with is a snake plant because you don’t need to water them so often, which is one reason why a lot of plants die. They are also great for spaces that are on the darker side because they only need indirect sunlight.

Take a pot and fill it with lava rocks for drainage. Then, take out the snake plant or whatever you decide to buy out of the nursery pot and massage it slightly so if there are any clumps of soil they come undone. Put them into the pot with more soil and you’re done!

]]> Houseplants can really brighten up the house and make it feel like home. Unfortunately, not all of us are born with a green thumb but with these basic rules, you’ll be able to keep your plants alive and master the art of gardening.

Light

All plants, even the ‘low-light tolerant’ ones, need light. However, most plants thrive in indirect light, so it’s best to keep them near a window.

Fertilize

Most soils that we use don’t have all the nutrients our plants need, so we need to provide those through fertilizers. Buy the right fertilizer and read the instructions on how often your plant needs fertilizing and make sure to stick to that schedule.

Drainage

Proper drainage is critical because it prevents excess moisture that can cause your plant to root. To ensure adequate drainage it’s best to fill the bottom of your planter with stones, sprinkle charcoal on top and then add potting soil.

Watering

The frequency of watering really depends on so many factors – the type of plant, the quantity of light, humidity, season and so on. That’s why it’s important to study the needs of your houseplant, or if you’re forgetful, you can get one of those low maintenance plants such as ZZ plant or succulents.

]]> There isn’t a better way to add a bit of color to your home than to decorate with a bunch of colorful indoor plants. However, before you bring these plants into your home, make sure they’re not poisonous to your pets.

Aloe Vera

Most of us love aloe plants and we use these gorgeous succulents for decorating our homes. Not to mention that Aloe Vera is widely known for its numerous health and beauty benefits. Unfortunately, this plant is toxic to our furry friends, so make sure to keep it out of their reach.

Branching ivy

Branching, or English ivy is a popular houseplant because it’s pretty low-maintenance and also purifies the air. Sadly, this nice plant is toxic to dogs and cats and symptoms of poisoning can include vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.

Philodendron

One of the most popular indoor plants, philodendron is toxic to both dogs and cats. Excessive drooling, vomiting, and difficulty in swallowing can be signs of potential poisoning, and if you notice any of them take your pet to the vet as soon as possible.

Peace Lily

The peace lily is one of the most adored indoor plants, thanks to its gorgeous white blooms. Don’t let its beauty confuse you and keep it out of reach of your pets because it’s extremely poisonous to cats and dogs.

]]> Not everyone naturally has a green thumb, but no matter your skill level, you too can be a plant parent! Having plants is such an important aspect in a living or working space because it not only improves air quality but having something growing and living in a space really makes it come alive.

If you don’t want to commit to a large plant that you feel like you might not be successful with, try this DIY plant that will brighten up all your spaces.

First, find a plant that suits your style aesthetically but also in terms of care. A really good plant to start out with is a snake plant because you don’t need to water them so often, which is one reason why a lot of plants die. They are also great for spaces that are on the darker side because they only need indirect sunlight.

Take a pot and fill it with lava rocks for drainage. Then, take out the snake plant or whatever you decide to buy out of the nursery pot and massage it slightly so if there are any clumps of soil they come undone. Put them into the pot with more soil and you’re done!
