When it comes to plants, my philosophy is always the more, the merrier. That is of course, if you have the space and time to take care of them. As the proud parent of over 17 leafy babies, I've learned a thing or two about tending to plants. This starts with acquiring the proper toolbox.
A watering can is a no-brainer, but you also need plant food and the proper knives to prune the leaves for example. If I've got you hooked, scroll on for some more useful items. You'll find a good-looking ceramic planter to put your favourite fiddle leaf fig on display, as well as the artifical lights that can boost plant growth.
