When was the last time you looked at your houseplants? Not a passing glance as you searched for your phone or gave them a quick water, but took the time to really consider them from the tips of their roots to the ends of their leaves.
Close observation is the best way to spot the symptoms of trouble ahead and make small tweaks in your care to help a plant that may otherwise be hurtling towards the compost heap. It will also make you feel better. There is mounting evidence that welcoming plants into our indoor spaces can help us access the many benefits of biophilia – our inbuilt need to connect with nature.
