Lesson 1: Selecting the best houseplants for YOU

  • Lesson tests are there for your enjoyment. You will not be graded on these tests. I promise they will be fun to read - and I've made sure to include tidbits of explanation about the houseplants in question that you will not find elsewhere among the lessons.


    Your Houseplant Style

    WHO ARE YOU? This is important. Are you a neglectful plant owner, a chronic overwaterer - or someone in between? It's okay, no matter which: we can work with this. There are plants that respond to all three styles of treatment.

    Choosing your plant care style

    Which one of these types sounds most like you? It's okay to be honest: the right plants will love you regardless.

    • Let Live Style

      If you don't like to fuss over plants and sometimes forget to water them, you want a Houseplant for the Black Thumb.

    • Basic Style

      If you like fuss-free plants but are sure you can at least water them regularly, you want an Easy-Care Gem

    • Attentive Style

      If you love handling the watering can and want to do it every day, you want a Fail-Safe Plant for the Chronic Overwaterer.
