Indoor Plants

Indoor plants name itself says that plant require less sunlight or sometime they can survive even with no sunlight. Excess of sunlight will make plant uncomfortable and plants may suffer burning of leaves. Also if no sunlight is given than our plant will show dullness and lack of color so keeping plant healthy is very important but how ? you will come to know with this article.

Basic requirement

Basic need for any plant is sunlight, water and air if any of three is missing then plant will not survive, so don't think that indoor means not at all giving light or air.

How much sunlight is needed ?

Indoor plant need minimum and filtered light of 1 to 2 hour, or if plant is kept near window then this is the best thing as plant will get enough light and also the air flow is good near window, so always choose the location near open place and also remember that if indoor plant given or kept in direct sunlight then survival rate will be zero because direct sunlight will burn all leaves and then plant.

Best location for indoor plant

Location decides that plant will survive or not, so before buying the plant always see weather we have space for indoor plants or outdoor plants.
North-East corner is best for indoor plants as plant will get bright morning light which is best for indoor plants. This doesn't means that other location is not good.
