1) What indoor plants are best for beginners?
Look for plants that tolerate missed waterings and adapt well to indoor conditions—especially easy-care foliage plantsthat do well in bright indirect light.
2) What counts as “low light” indoors?
Low light usually means you can read comfortably in the room during the day, but there’s no direct sun on the plant. Many plants still prefer bright indirect light, even if they tolerate low light.
3) How often should I water indoor plants?
It depends on the plant, pot size, and light. A safe rule: check the top 1–2 inches of soil—water when it feels dry for most common houseplants. Overwatering is the #1 issue we see.
4) Do you carry pet-friendly indoor plants?
Yes—there are options that are generally considered safer around pets. Because sensitivity varies by animal and plant part, always verify with a trusted veterinary source if your pet tends to chew plants.
5) Will indoor plants survive Bay Area temperature swings?
Most indoor plants are happiest between typical indoor temperatures. Keep them away from drafty doors, heaters, and cold window glass on winter nights.
6) What should I do when my plant arrives?
Unbox promptly, place it in bright indirect light, and let it rest a few days before repotting. Water only if the soil is dry—shipping stress + overwatering is a common combo.
