For the last part of this trio of blogposts about moving with houseplants, we are going to address post-move plant care; what to do in those few weeks as you begin to settle into your new space with your plant gang + some plant care that is best left a little longer to tackle. If…
Read MoreIn the previous post, we talked generally about the somewhat daunting prospect of moving with houseplants + focused on pre-move plant care; how to prepare your plants for the move + getting a ‘packing kit’ together in readiness.
