Being stuck inside over the winter months is always a bit of a struggle for me, and I think the same can be said of my houseplants, too. Low light levels, cold draughts and dry indoor air from the central heating can leave even the best of houseplants feeling a little frazzled, which is why I always try to give my plants a bit of an MOT at this time of year.
As with a car and its yearly check, giving houseplants an MOT (maintenance, observation and treatment) is essential when it comes to winter houseplant care if you want to keep them happy and healthy. And I’ve found that since I’ve started giving my houseplants a regular health check-up, they’re looking all the better for it.
