Learning about Tropical Plant Care and the tropical plant growth process is beneficial for the survival of your house plants or garden plants and flowers and caring for plants so that they produce luscious green leafs and brightly colored flowers.
You should always first check the label on your plant of the specifics because plants sold at nurseries, Home Depot or Lowes usually will only sell plants that are adaptable for your area.
For the most part tropical plants love the sun so before planting any new plants outdoors watch the area where you want to plant and see if it becomes heavily shaded for most of the day or if you get only partial shade during the day which is actually fine to have a little bit of shade for many plants, or if you get full 100% sunshine throughout the day.
One thing to remember that most rainforest plants don’t like direct sun they only like filtered sun under trees etc.
So when watering please remember not to over water or to be constantly sitting in muddy oversaturated water, this will lead to root rot and eventually kill your plant or tree.
It’s better to have your plant dry out a bit between watering rather than over watering your plants, flowers and trees.
Its good to fertilize at the beginning and end of summer either using a liquid fertilizer or a pellet time released fertilizer, remember not to fertilize during the winter.
If you want you can do as I do and as soon as the last frost of winter has passed which is the first sign of spring around April depending on where you live, you can add a bit of fertilizer to give your plant a boost for spring and summer.
