<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Gardenia</h3>



<p>Gardenia is an app that is most suited for house plants like herbs and vegetables you would typically grow on your terrace or balcony. Once you let the app know which plant you own in your garden, it will give you tailored information on the right portion of water, the proper fertilisers and pesticides and even the perfect placement for your potted plants so that it is exposed to the correct amount of sunlight.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>Whether you have one plant or more, the app has an inbuilt tracker which allows you to set alarms in order to care for them individually. In addition to all this, Gardenia also pays attention to the daily weather and other environmental conditions of your surroundings so that the guidance provided by the app is more tailored and accurate.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">PlantSnap</h3>



<p>With an aim to get the younger generations interested in gardening, PlantSnap is an app that has collaborated with Snapchat so that you can record and share your gardening journey with your friends using cool snaps. On top of that, PantSnap has one of the largest collections of plants in its database with the app being able to recognise more than 600 thousand plants while also translating the details into nearly 40 languages thus making the app user-friendly for more people.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>However, PlantSnap is limited to only helping with the identification and cannot actually help you with taking care of the plants. But, given that the app can apparently identify 90 per cent of the species around the world, this could be a go-to source if the other apps don’t have information about your plant in them.</p>

Plant Parenthood Made Simple: Apps for Keeping Your Plants Healthy

<div class=""><span style="font-size: large;"><span class=""><span style="color: #222222;">&nbsp;</span></span></span>When COVID-19 lockdowns started around the world, some people adopted a pet to fill the social void. Other&#8217;s got a houseplant. Or four. Or 70! No, seriously. Scroll through Instagram and you&#8217;ll notice that plants are so trendy right now. Dense snake plants to lush monstera, cute little pileas or whimsical vines – gardening has become the latest form of self-care during the peak COVID-period and plants, the newest decorating trend. &nbsp;And not just for aesthetic value, there are a variety of reasons to add a splash of green in every room of your house – they purify air, lessen the toxin content, some have aromatherapy benefits and are a such a visual and visceral treat.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>If constant love and care is something you&#8217;re incapable of, yellowed, drooping leaves, sickened roots are downright daunting and you&#8217;re guilty of constant <em>planticide</em>, then allow us to draw an in-depth guide to guarantee a green thumb. And remember, houseplants thrive on a calculated regime of neglect and minimal intervention.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
</div>
<div><strong>1. Choose your plant and pot wisely</strong></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-60465 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-14.png" alt="" width="466" height="700" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-14.png 466w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-14-200x300.png 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-14-186x280.png 186w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-14-120x180.png 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-14-400x601.png 400w" sizes="(max-width: 466px) 100vw, 466px" /></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Keeping a living creature alive is no mean feat. Get acquainted with the sunlight condition at your apartment and purchase plants accordingly. If your home is not blessed with the rays <em>(or straight-up gothic?)</em> look for plants that thrive in arid conditions and shade. Knowing the environment on offer is the first step to keeping those beautiful greens alive for years.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Purchasing pots according to the watering needs of the plant is equally important. Plants which require excessive moisture will grow better in plastic pots. The porous nature of the clay pots are apt if you are a nervous waterer. Depending on the size of the plant and how much you want it to grow, buy a planter in between six and 18 inches – that&#8217;s ample amount of space for the roots to dig in.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>2. The top cause of plant death is overwatering</strong></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-60466 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-15.png" alt="" width="466" height="700" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-15.png 466w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-15-200x300.png 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-15-186x280.png 186w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-15-120x180.png 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-15-400x601.png 400w" sizes="(max-width: 466px) 100vw, 466px" /></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Stick your fingers in the soil unto the second knuckle – if it&#8217;s damp then wait for a day before watering. Dry and powdery sand means it&#8217;s time to give some liquid therapy. Research the plants and the care regimen they require, but as a rule of thumb, lush foliage drinks up more water than let&#8217;s say, cacti – especially in growth season. The best time to water your greens is between six to 10 am when evaporation is low, so the soil stays damp for longer.&nbsp;How much and how often you water the plants depends upon a lot of external factors – humidity, sunlight, type of plant and pot – but the solution remains the same, check the soil to see if it&#8217;s dry.&nbsp;</div>
<div><em>Top tip:</em> Underwatering doesn&#8217;t kill plants as much as overwatering but never wait for the leaves to wilt, that causes plant stress and impacts growth.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>3. Positioning and rotating matters</strong></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-60468 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-17.png" alt="" width="466" height="700" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-17.png 466w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-17-200x300.png 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-17-186x280.png 186w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-17-120x180.png 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-17-400x601.png 400w" sizes="(max-width: 466px) 100vw, 466px" /></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Plants love sunshine, assign your most sun-loving plant near a south-facing window for maximum rays. Winters are tricky for houseplants, with less natural light and shorter days, you will have to constantly rotate the position of your plants near the sunniest, most generous window to keep them nourished and thriving. Rotation and re-positioning happens to be one of the most overlooked techniques when it is especially critical for all-round growth. <em>Unless you&#8217;re the awkward lopsided plant-lover?</em></div>
<div><em>&nbsp;</em></div>
<div><strong>4. One bad leaf can spoil the bunch!</strong></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-60469 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-18.png" alt="" width="466" height="700" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-18.png 466w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-18-200x300.png 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-18-186x280.png 186w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-18-120x180.png 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-18-400x601.png 400w" sizes="(max-width: 466px) 100vw, 466px" /></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Like your kids, your plants need the occasional haircut too. Chop the yellow branches, dead flowers, wipe the leaves from time-to-time so that there is no filter between the leaf tissue and sunlight, check the soil for unwelcome guests – pesky bugs, mildew, grey mould, rotten roots, spider mites. No matter how committed a gardener you are, bugs can cause immense damage, you will have to rely on a pesticide spray (store-brought or natural, like neem oil), to keep the soil healthy. If the houseplant looks severely diseased, try pruning the affected area and replant. Mushy, yellow leaves mean that bugs have managed to infiltrate the root and sadly, it cannot be salvaged once root rot sets in.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>5. Know thy self, know thy habits</strong></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>An areca palm might match the tropical vibe at your place but does it match your lifestyle? Do you work 60-hours a week and there is no one at home to share your gardening load? Do you often go for holidays or frequently travel for work? What kind of time and energy are you ready to commit to your green streak? Purchasing plants is easy but before involving your wallet, it&#8217;s important to recognize the kind of plant person you are and whether you can handle the commitment of fussy plants. Gardening newbies should stick to what&#8217;s termed as the &#8216;indestructible&#8217; plants – the spider plant, snake plant, ZZ plant, dracaena, pothos amongst others – these species are almost impossible to kill and can withstand a lot of neglect and poor conditions.&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>&nbsp;</strong></div>
<div><strong>Tips:&nbsp;</strong></div>
<ul>
<li>Plants detest sitting near a very hot or very cold spot &#8211; next to a radiator or a window on a chilly night is not the ideal place for their growth.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Dampness-loving ferns make for excellent bathroom plants.</li>
<li>Invest in a digital thermometer for an accurate reading of humidity and temperature if you&#8217;re undecided on which part of the house to keep your plants.</li>
<li>
<div>Coffee grinds, vegetable peels, citrus rinds make for fantastic organic snacks for the plants. Best part, there is no funky smell involved and plants thrive on natural composts.&nbsp;</div>
</li>
<li>Self-watering planters or automatic drip irrigation kits are essential if your lifestyle involves a lot of travel or you are generally careless with your plants. Again, know thy self, know thy habits.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

Green thumb success: How not to kill your plants!

<p>Gemma Hayden Blest has been a part of making Hong Kong beautiful for nearly seven years now. Hailing from the UK, the floral designer built up a not-too-shabby resume working under brands such as Alexander McQueen and Burberry before finding her true passion&nbsp;– flowers. We took a stroll with Gemma down the streets of Central, and had the floral&nbsp;connoisseur give us tips on how to make our Christmas budding with beauty.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em><a href="http://www.haydenblest.com/info.php?id=2">Gemma Hayden Blest</a></em></p>
<p><strong>Tell us a bit about yourself and your work&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>I work as a floral designer. My work ranges&nbsp;from events to shop installations to editorial. I specialise in communicating ideas through flower power, creating a mood or ambiance through flora or using them to&nbsp;help create a concept.</p>
<p><strong>You studied fashion design; so, at what point did you know you could use that&nbsp;experience and expertise to channel it into floral designs and arrangements?</strong></p>
<p>I love fashion and a huge amount of what I do stems from my fashion&nbsp;background. I think I found the lag times in fashion frustrating and prefer the&nbsp;speed that’s required for flowers. They have to be designed, created and enjoyed&nbsp;in the moment.</p>

<p><strong>Since the holidays are typically a time of indulgence, can you give us suggestions on how to incorporate eco-friendly arrangements in decoration?</strong></p>
<p>Definitely. There is no need to be excessively plastic with your designing. Invest&nbsp;in good-quality products that can be stored each year. The beauty in flowers is&nbsp;that it’s so easy to make a set of vases of candle holders look completely different each&nbsp;year. Pine, berries and eucalyptus are pretty long-lasting, so a few sprigs can&nbsp;last a few weeks.</p>
<p><strong>How do holiday arrangements in Asia differ from say the UK, where you’re&nbsp;from?</strong></p>
<p>We’re lucky to live in HK where imports are easy to get. I struggle with the loss of&nbsp;scent though. Boxed-up goods just never smell like freshly cut pine from the&nbsp;garden. I tend to give imports a helping hand with scented candles or room mist.&nbsp;Jo Malone does a beautiful Pine &amp; Eucalyptus candle that helps bring back the aroma.</p>

<p><strong>What flower is the most popular around Christmas time with your clients, and&nbsp;what is your personal favourite?</strong></p>
<p>The Queen Amaryllis is always a popular favourite. Grand and colourful, there’s&nbsp;also a lovely anticipation in waiting for the bulbs to bloom that reflects the&nbsp;anticipation of waiting for Christmas day to arrive.</p>
<p><strong>What tips can you give our readers about Christmas decorations?</strong></p>
<p>A running element throughout your home will hold everything together – maybe&nbsp;it’s a type of ribbon or floral element or focal colour. Also a wreath on your front&nbsp;door sets a lovely welcoming tone for what’s inside.</p>
<p><strong>Thank you.</strong></p>
