In today’s Repotting Diaries, I’m tackling some of my awkward plants! You know the type — the ones that are a bit of a hassle to re-pot that you might have been putting off for a while, or those that haven’t been doing as well as they could — I’m sure we all have a…

Last week I shared a post over on instagram of my Oxalis triangularis purple, in which I asked my readers if they had any care questions they’d like me to cover in this year’s annual Oxalis post, which has become a bit of a tradition here at HPH. And questions you certainly did have! So…

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! I trialled an all-in-one-day repotting session with my 3 Monsteras last year + found it to be a surprisingly good way to tackle the task, because it always…

During the colder part of the year I rarely carry out any repotting (unless there’s an emergency)…

This time last year, I shared a post about how to get your houseplants ready for Spring + with the changing of the clocks last weekend, it seems a good time to revisit this. This winter was the first full season my plants + I spent in a colder location + as such, this topic…

I currently have two Peperomia hopes in my collection + whenever I share a photo of either plants over on Instagram I always get some questions about their growth habit + more specifically, how I’ve got my plants to trail in the way they do! A lot of plants have a tendency to grow horizontally…

Today’s post is my top 10 easy-care, hard-to-kill houseplants + the second in my series of ‘HPH guides’, after putting together the low light tolerant article that went up a few weeks ago. Soon after sharing that one, I got a call from a friend that prompted me to write this particular guide next… The…
