How to Care for Your Indoor Plants
Keep your gift plants thriving with these simple indoor plant care tips from Enchanted Blossoms in Bell Works, Holmdel, NJ. Learn how to water, light, and love your plants the right way.
Whether you’ve received a Peace Lily, succulent, orchid, or dish garden from Enchanted Blossoms, proper care ensures your plant stays happy and healthy. Use this quick reference guide to help you nurture your new leafy friend and keep it looking beautiful for weeks, months—or even years—to come.
1. Light:
Most indoor plants prefer bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid placing them in direct sun unless they are succulents or cacti, which love full sun.
2. Watering:
-
Peace Lilies: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Leaves may droop slightly when thirsty—just don’t let it stay dry too long.
-
Succulents: Water sparingly—only when the soil is completely dry. Avoid standing water.
-
Orchids: Water about once a week and let excess water drain. Mist the leaves occasionally.
Peace Lily Low–medium light 1x/week Wilts when thirsty—easy to read
Succulents Bright direct light Every 2–3 weeks Let soil fully dry before watering
Orchids Indirect light 1x/week Avoid overwatering; mist occasionally
Dish Gardens Indirect to bright Varies (every 7–10 days) Don’t water all plants equally-
Dish Gardens: Check each plant type and water accordingly, typically once every 7–10 days.
Tip: Always check the soil moisture before watering. Overwatering is a common mistake.
3. Humidity & Airflow:
Many houseplants enjoy moderate humidity. If your home is dry, especially in winter, mist your plant or use a humidity tray.
4. Fertilizing:
Use a balanced, diluted houseplant fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring/summer). Succulents and orchids may require specialty fertilizer.
5. Cleaning:
Dust plant leaves with a soft cloth to help them breathe and absorb light more efficiently.
6. Re-potting:
If roots are growing out of the drainage holes or your plant dries out quickly, it may be time to move to a slightly larger pot.
