TIP OF THE DAY
Can Your Plant Handle a Little Neglect?
Low-light plants thrive on minimal care, making them perfect for busy schedules. Water sparingly, giving them just a little sip every couple of weeks to keep them hydrated without overwatering.

With this easy routine, your low-light plants will stay happy and healthy, adding greenery to your space with minimal effort. |  |
