How to Grow Indoor Plants Without Killing Them
Description
Book Introduction
Companion plants bring a touch of freshness to our everyday lives. We want to cherish them for years to come, but why do they wilt so quickly when they arrive at our house? This book contains a guide to plants that were once thought to thrive with just a "sunlit spot" and a "moderate" amount of water once a month.
In particular, you can learn about the characteristics, environment, and proper care methods of 119 types of companion plants, such as anthurium, rubber tree, monstera, and indoor bonsai, which are easily found around us.

Into the book
Many indoor plants require higher humidity than normal indoor environments, which is especially important if you have heating.
To maintain indoor humidity, fill a plant-sized tray with pebbles, add enough water to cover the pebbles, and place the pot on top.
As water evaporates, it creates moisture.
--- From "〈Plant Growing Basics〉 Arranging Plants in Flower Pots"

Plants also need nutrition to grow well.
A few weeks after purchasing the plant, or about two months after planting it in a pot, begin giving it nutrients.
In spring and summer, mix liquid nutrients in when watering.
Usually, once a month is appropriate.
Overnutrition is also not good, so follow the instructions carefully and do not give more than that.
--- From "〈Plant Growing Basics〉 Giving Nutrients and Growing"

What if the leaves have turned brown and shriveled?
Bat orchids have small, split leaves on the underside.
They act as a shield, absorbing water and protecting the roots.
As we age, our skin naturally turns brown.
--- From "〈Indoor Plant Care〉 119 Ways to Care for Each Type"

Asplenium nidus
This fern with lush, shiny leaves is easy to grow.
It grows well in little light, but occasionally wipe the leaves to make them shiny and give them some light.
