It might not seem obvious to less experienced plant parents, but your houseplants need some special attention in winter. As temperatures plummet and the nights draw in, your indoor greenery will be adapting to its new environment and you might need to intervene to provide the right care essential for their well-being. 

It’s important to remember that houseplants tend to rest through the winter season. They'll be growing much more slowly or may become completely dormant, but that doesn't mean you can throw your plant care out of the window. Providing the right amount of light and a comfortable temperature for your plants are vital factors to consider. And, if you hadn't yet figured it out, that may involve moving them from their usual spot.
