Pruning isn't just about making a plant look nicer, it can also help encourage healthier growth and improve the overall appearance of your plant.

Some signs it may be time for a trim:

- Yellowing or damaged leaves

- Long, leggy growth with lots of spacing between leaves

- Dead or dried stems

- Vines that have become unruly or overgrown

- Leaves that are blocking light from reaching other parts of the plant

A good trim can help:
- Encourage fuller growth
- Improve airflow
- Remove damaged foliage
- Help your plant focus energy on healthy growth

Just remember not every plant should be heavily pruned all at once. Sometimes a little cleanup goes a long way!

When was the last time you gave one of your plants a haircut? 👀✂️

Between caring for plants, rooting cuttings, mixing substrates, and preparing for the upcoming farmer's market, there's never a dull moment around here .

One of my favorite parts of this business is getting to spend time with so many different plants and helping them thrive.

Can you guess how many plants are currently living in my collection?

Did you know that one of the biggest causes of plant problems can be the soil itself?

Many houseplants are sold in dense, moisture-retaining potting mixes that work well in greenhouses but can become problematic in our homes over time.

Different plants have different needs, and a one-size-fits-all soil mix isn't always the best solution.

A substrate upgrade can help improve:
🌱 drainage
🌱 airflow to roots
🌱 moisture balance
🌱 root health
🌱 overall growth

Whether it's a chunky aroid mix, a fast-draining succulent blend, or something in between, matching the substrate to the plant can make a huge difference.

Sometimes the biggest improvement isn't a bigger pot, it's better soil 🌿

If your plant has been struggling despite regular care, the substrate may be part of the problem. Feel free to send a photo and I'd be happy to help!

🌿 Plant Spotlight: Lemon Lime Maranta 🌿

Bright, bold, and full of personality.

The Lemon Lime Maranta is a colorful variety of prayer plant known for its vibrant lime-green patterns and fascinating daily movement.

One of the coolest things about Marantas is that they "pray". Their leaves lift upward in the evening and lower again during the day as they follow natural light cycles.

A few things these beauties love:
☀️ Bright, indirect light
💧 Consistently moist (but not soggy) soil, (distilled water preferred)
💨 Moderate to high humidity
🌿 Well-draining substrate

While they're often considered beginner-friendly, Lemon Lime Marantas can be a little dramatic when they're unhappy. Crispy leaf edges or curling leaves are often signs that humidity, watering, or water quality may need adjusting.

With the right care, they'll reward you with stunning foliage and steady growth year-round.

🌿 A little plant transformation moment 🌿

These plant came in needing some fresh substrate to improve drainage and we opted to put my client's marble pothos on a moss pole. It’s amazing what a difference the right substrate and support can make.

Sometimes plants aren’t “failing” — they’re just struggling in the wrong environment.

Fresh soil, healthier roots, better support, and proper care can completely change how a plant grows over time.

Watching plants bounce back never gets old 💚

If you have a plant that’s been looking a little unhappy lately, feel free to send a photo, I’m always happy to help!

Summer is actually one of the best times to repot many houseplants! During the warmer months, most plants are actively growing, which means they’re usually able to adjust to fresh soil, new pots, and root work much more easily than during slower winter months.

Signs your plant may be ready for a repot:
- roots growing from drainage holes
- soil drying out extremely fast
- stunted or slowed growth
- compacted or old soil
- the plant becoming top heavy or unstable

A proper repot can help improve:
🌿 drainage
🌿 airflow to roots
🌿 nutrient availability
🌿 overall plant health and growth

If your plants have been looking a little tired lately, summer is a great time to give them a fresh start 🌱
