Indoor plants + Timber Flooring

Timber floor care with indoor plants

​Because having your own indoor plant jungle🪴 shouldn't stop you from having the floor you love 💚 ⁠🍃 

​
⁠Water damage is one of the worst things that can happen to your flooring, resulting with warping or buckled boards as well as permanent marks or stains.

​How to protect your timber flooring and enjoy your indoor jungle:

🍃  A simple way to prevent excess moisture on your floor is to use waterproof saucers, trays, pots to catch any excess water from reaching your timber floor.
🍃 Air Circulate: Not placing your plants directly on the floor and by using plant stands allow you to circulate air underneath the plant, reducing any chance of trapped condensation and easily spotting if you have overwatered a plant, so you can clean up the spill promptly.

🍃 Keep your pots secure, be mindful of gusts of wind, curious pets and children that might knock your pots over, that may leave soil and moisture unattended on your floor for long durations.

🍃 Using felt pads on the bottom of pots will protect your floor from any unwanted scratches⁠ from relocating pots. Also avoid dragging or sliding your pots along the floor.

🍃 Hydrate and water your plants with care and wipe up any spills immediately.

🍃 Regularly sweep or vacuum around pots to remove any soil or leaves to prevent any floor scratches 🍃 🍁
