Today’s post is all about my favourite houseplants to grow in west facing rooms. This is an orientation that I love — it’s such an adaptable setting for houseplant growing + it can facilitate favourable conditions for a relatively wide range of plants. Whilst Southern exposures are lovely + bright their light intensity can be…

In today’s post we are focusing on houseplants that can tolerate that bright South-facing room in your space. Southern spaces are highly coveted when house-hunting, with rooms bathed in a balmy golden light for a good amount of the day in the Spring + Summer months.

For today’s post, I thought I’d share some of the post-move houseplant care that I’ve been working through this week here at houseplanthouse. I’ve spoken to a few of you since I posted about moving over on instagram recently who are also either about to move or are in the process of moving with your…

Hello — I’m back! For my first post after the 3 week blog-break, I’m happy to share a bit more about what’s been going on behind the scenes here at HPH. It’s certainly been an eventful couple of weeks. Long story short, at long last, I’ve just moved house + as there had never been…

Today’s post is a ‘Repotting Diaries‘ from a session that I carried out a few weeks ago — I’m starting to pack now + I don’t generally like to re-pot too close to any re-location. I tackled some of those plants that really needed a re-pot before getting carefully boxed up — a couple of…
