For today’s post, I’ve put together a top ten of my favourite pink houseplants that I love growing here at HOUSEPLANTHOUSE. As a disclaimer to start though, I must confess that as a colour, pink is not actually one of my favourites. I’ve not used pink to decorate + it’s not a colour that appears…

Today’s blogpost has been in my drafts for a while, but with the current travel restrictions, it didn’t really seem like the right time to publish the piece. Even though I don’t have any plans to go anywhere this year, I wanted to share my tips on houseplant holiday care in case you are planning…

Today’s post is a much-requested one which has admittedly taken some time to prepare because it involves quite a big task — repotting my 3 Monstera plants!

It’s no secret that my big Monstera is my favourite houseplant here at houseplanthouse. I think I’m most drawn to the large green leaves + human scale of the plant which instantly brightens up a room + brings it to life. Even if you only have a few plants, a Monstera can become a stand-out…
