Did you know that bromeliads only bloom once?
Though there are some exceptions, the majority of bromeliads bloom just once.

But don’t worry: Your mother plant will produce new plantlets—also called “pups”—allowing your bromeliad to be constantly in bloom, even once the original plant is done flowering.

Here’s a few of the variety of bromeliads we have in our collection. Which one don’t you have? Consider passing by our nursery in Tigoni, Limuru

Ficus Benjamina is a great plant to add some texture and colour to your bedroom corner. The slender, shiny leaves are elegant in their style and serve a pretty important purpose.

The Ficus is particularly good at filtering formaldehyde, xylene and toluene from the air.

Place in a light spot in your bedroom and leave it there to settle and do its thing!

The key to a healthy bird's nest fern is providing it with ample warmth, humidity, and moisture. When growing it as a houseplant, one of the best places to situate a bird's nest fern is near a shower in a bathroom where it will receive optimal humidity and warmth, and near a window for ample light

Caring for a black gold philodendron

✔️ Watering- You can judge the soil’s moisture level by placing your finger on it. If it is too dry then that’s not a good sign. If it’s slightly damp then you can postpone the watering routine by a few days.
✔️ Lighting- indirect, bright shade light
✔️ Potting soil mix- Most experts consider sphagnum peat moss as the best soil type for these philodendrons.
✔️ Fertilizer- These unique plants get their strength from nitrogen-rich fertilizers.
✔️ Pest control- black gold philodendrons do not attract the attention of deadly pests and diseases.

Unlike seasonal plants, it’s always bromeliad season. While they can be planted outdoors, they tend to do best when kept in consistent warm temperatures indoors.
