You don’t have to be a gardening expert to keep these blossoming plants happy, according to Bloomscape’s “plant mom,” horticulturist Joyce Mast. “Caring for these plants is generally the same as for other indoor plants,” she says. “Most indoor flowering plants are able to reside in various lighting situations in your home, even in the direct sunlight.” First off, maintain your plant by removing spent blooms or yellowing foliage. This makes sure the energy is directed toward producing new blooms. Mast also recommends keeping the soil somewhat moist while avoiding standing water at the bottom of the pot—which can cause issues for the plant’s root system. If you’re ready to be a budding horticulturist, here are some flowering plants you can easily grow indoors. “If you see the bloom sagging a bit, place the pot in a sink or bucket with approximately two to three inches of water so the soil can soak up the moisture through the drainage hole for about 45 minutes,” Mast says. “Allow the water to drain and set back on the saucer in the sunlight.” RELATED: How to Care for Your Hydrangeas RELATED: 5 Things You Should Consider Before Buying Plants at the Nursery
