How to care for Empire Cypress
Sun: Direct & Indirect
They enjoy some direct sun, but they'll also do well in bright, indirect light. It is best to place this plant somewhere where it will receive some nice morning sun, or a couple hours of afternoon sun, and then indirect light the rest of the day.
Light: Bright
They will do best in bright light. A nice bright place inside your home would be on the window sill or a stool that is right next to a window, either with or without blinds, depending on if the plant can handle sun. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.
Water: When half dry
They need to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again.
Humidity: Any
They can live in any average home humidity condition and are fairly hardy.
Care Tips
Rotate the plant when watering to prevent it growing in one direction and becoming lopsided.
Pet Caution
This plant is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home..

How to care for English Ivy
Sun: Indirect
They should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.
Light: Medium
They will do well in medium light but will grow faster with brighter light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.
Water: When mostly dry
They like the soil to be relatively dry before the next watering. That usually takes about 2 weeks in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but for them, it's always safer to underwater or water when you see signs of lack of water (i.e. droopy, floppy, or soft leaves). Water more often in the warmer months.
Humidity: Medium
They will do well in average humidity environments but will appreciate a little bit of humidity if provided, give them a mist daily or get a humidifier.
Care Tips
Feel free to trim up long runners and repot them back into your plant to keep it looking bushy and full. Use sharp, clean scissors and carefully cut just below a leaf node, then remove the leaf at that node and plant that part of the stem, as that is where the roots will form.

Humidity: Any
They can live in any average home humidity condition and are fairly hardy.
Care Tips
Even though they can tolerate lower light, if you want full, lush foliage, it would be better to keep your plant in a location with medium to bright, indirect light - your plant would greatly benefit from some morning sunlight. In order to encourage mature growth, over time, it would be ideal to grow your plant on a totem or moss pole to support its foliage.

How to care for Epipremnum Aureum Shangri La
Sun: Indirect

Humidity: Any
They can live in any average home humidity condition and are fairly hardy.
Care Tips
Since the Shangri La pothos variety has some variegation in the leaves, it will need brighter light to support that variegation, so keep that in mind if it is placed in lower light. Feel free to trim your Pothos regularly as this encourages the plant to develop more side-shoots and reduces the demand for the plant to develop a larger root system while confined. Their cuttings propagate very easily in water.

How to care for Eyelash Fern
Sun: Indirect
They should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine.
