10 Rules for healthy plants

1) Plants need water, light, food, and proper drainage. Each plant needs different amounts of these elements. The trick is to learn about each plant, and give it what it needs.

2) Over watering kills more plants than anything else.

3) Yellow leaves usually indicate watering problems.

4) Insects are sometimes nearly invisible, look carefully, especially under the leaves.

5) Trust your instincts. If your plants look healthy, they usually are.

6) When watering, water your plants thouroughly.

7) Plants like consistancy.

8) Dust your plants, let photosynthesis happen.

9) Rotate your plants monthly to keep them growing upward.

10) If you have been following rules 1-9 and have a problem, call me.
