Discover the newest trends when it comes to plants

Plants come in all types and sizes and Mother Nature came up with lots of them! Every season, there is a new trend when it comes to these plants. How to stay on top of your game with the latest trends? Luckily it’s not always about new plants, but more about how you treat and interact with them.

No longer need to go to the garden center

The garden center? So old school. People nowadays buy plants online. Several benefits come with ordering a plant online. The portals that deliver plants provide a lot of background information on the plants. For example, how to take care of them, accompanied with YouTube videos. Next to that, they help to guide your decision-making. Questions that are asked include:

  • Are you a person with green fingers?
  • How good are you at watering plants?
  • Do you want to have a big or a small plant?
  • Do you like flowers or prefer green plants?

The inputs are processed and provide you with an overview of the plants that suit your needs. No more guessing and judging plants based on their looks. You will finally be united with a plant that suits you.

You might suspect plants to arrive in a bad condition when delivered to your home. However, the packaging that is being used is very innovative and suits the plant like a glove. This makes it possible to transport it safely and helps it to arrive in a mint condition.

There’s an app for everything

Not only did buying plants online become easy, but some applications help you take care of them. For example, you could go for an app that has the functionality to guide you on watering the plant. In the app, you can select the plant that you have at home. Next, you can indicate the size and the app provides a recommended watering schedule. Following this schedule, you will never forget to water your plants and do it at exactly the right time. This enables you to take care of your plants properly, without thinking about it too much.

One step further

Some apps go one step further. For example, they allow you to play music for the plant to stimulate its growth. Talk to them to make sure that they stay healthy and well.

Become part of a community

Social media has brought a lot. Not only does it help you interact with friends all over the globe, but it also makes it easy to find people with similar interests. For example, there is a large community on the Internet that focuses on the Japanese Bonsai technique. Here you can find people who share tips and tricks, and also show the progress of their Bonsai trees. This allows you to learn while doing and sharing your progress with fellow enthusiasts. This is a nice way to stay engaged and learn about the technique.
