At Harris Garden Center, we know houseplants bring life, color, and clean air into your home—but even the most low-maintenance greenery needs the right care to stay healthy. Not sure if your houseplants are thriving or just surviving? Here are a few telltale signs to watch for—and what you can do to keep your plants smiling (yes, plants can absolutely smile in their own leafy way).
Top Signs Your Houseplants Are Unhappy
Yellowing Leaves – Often a sign of overwatering or poor drainage.
Crispy, Brown Tips – Usually caused by low humidity or underwatering.
Droopy Leaves – Could be too much water… or not enough. Check the soil!
Stunted Growth – May need more light, nutrients, or a bigger pot.
Pale or Faded Leaves – Not getting enough light for their type.
How to Keep Your Houseplants Happy
1. Know Your Light
Place sun-loving plants (like succulents and fiddle leaf figs) near bright windows, and shade-lovers (like pothos or snake plants) in lower-light spots.2. Water Wisely
Don’t stick to a schedule—stick your finger in the soil. Most houseplants prefer to dry out slightly between waterings.3. Boost Humidity
Florida homes with A/C can be dry. Try misting, grouping plants together, or placing a small humidifier nearby.4. Feed Gently
Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring through fall).5. Repot When Needed
Roots coming out the bottom? Leaves crowding the pot? Time to upgrade your plant’s home.Need Help Diagnosing a Sad Plant?
