How to care for Fairy Castle Cactus
Fairy Castle Cactus enjoys 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.
Fairy Castle Cactus will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.
Fairy Castle Cactus likes the soil to be completely dry before the next watering. That usually takes about 4 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. wrinkly or soft leaves). Water a little more often in the warmer months!
Their humidity requirement is low, so do not mist Fairy Castle Cactus or put them in an enclosed terrarium.
As with all succulents, overwatering is sure to be fatal, so err on the side of too dry. Fairy Castle Cactus propagates quite easily from cuttings, simply sever a branch and allow it to dry out and harden before planting. Then, replant the cutting in moist, well-drained soil. Be cautious with fertilization; excessive nutrients can lead to rapid growth that may distort the characteristic compact form of the plant. Ensure the pot has adequate drainage to prevent root rot.
You can feel comfortable having Fairy Castle Cactus around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants..

How to care for False Aralia
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.
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.
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.
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!
False Aralia don't like to be moved around a lot. A sudden change in location causes the leaves to drop off. Therefore, make environmental changes gradually and try not to move the plant in winter.
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 Fern Leaf Begonia
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.
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.
Allow the top quarter of the soil to dry before watering again. This usually takes about 3 - 4 days in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.
They like a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.
High humidity is key in keeping this plant happy and healthy, and it’s also relatively sensitive to too much handling and cold, too. A controlled environment like a terrarium is the best option, as it will meet the needs of not soggy but consistently moist soil, high humidity (70-90%), protection from sudden changes in temperature (12-26°C) and airflow to avoid powdery mildew and other fungal issues. Use room temperature water as cold water can damage the plant. Lastly, this plant is not a fan of direct sunlight but loves bright, indirect light from horticultural fluorescent lights. They require particularly bright light and are best positioned close to the centre of the light where light levels are most intense.
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..

Firefly Leopard Plant 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.
To maintain the glossy, vibrant look, keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around the base outdoors to help lock in moisture. If grown indoors, Firefly Leopard Plant appreciates extra humidity — without it, the leaf edges may dry and brown. Fertilize lightly during the growing season with a balanced fertilizer every 4–6 weeks. If you notice the spotting fading or leaves becoming leggy, it's likely craving more light. Remove older leaves at the base to keep the plant looking tidy and encourage fresh growth. In colder climates, Firefly can be overwintered indoors or protected outside, as it doesn't tolerate hard freezes well.

Being an epiphyte, it benefits from being potted in a well-draining, orchid or cacti mix to mimic its natural growing conditions on tree branches. Pruning is rarely needed but can be done to maintain shape or control size. You don't need to worry about repotting fishbone cactus; it grows and blooms best when somewhat root bound. Only repot every four or five years.

How to care for Fukien Tea Bonsai
Fukien Tea Bonsai enjoys 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.
Fukien Tea Bonsai 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.
Allow the top quarter of the soil to dry before watering again. This usually takes about 3 - 4 days in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.
Fukien Tea Bonsai likes a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.
Regular pruning Fukien Tea Bonsai is needed to maintain its shape and encourage denser foliage. Prune back to 2-4 leaves after 6-8 leaves have grown. Use a balanced liquid fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season and monthly during the winter. Repot every two years in the spring, using well-draining soil mix designed for bonsai. Watch for pests like aphids and spider mites. Treat infestations immediately with appropriate measures.
Fukien Tea Bonsai 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..
