What this is

Houseplant Care Essentials teaches you how to read your home's conditions and match plants to them. You learn how much light plants really need, how to water by checking rather than by schedule, how to choose pots and potting mixes, how to feed and repot, and how to diagnose and gently fix common problems.

Every lesson ends with a quick task using the plants you already own or plan to buy. By the end of the course you will have a simple weekly care routine and a clear understanding of why plants thrive or struggle.

What you will be able to do

  • Assess the light levels in every room of your home
  • Choose plants suited to your conditions
  • Water correctly by checking soil and roots
  • Select pots and potting mixes that drain well
  • Feed, prune, repot and propagate plants
