Plants use water for photosynthesis. It allows them to move nutrients throughout their entire body.
Plants absorb water through their roots. This is why it’s important to check the moisture of the soil below the top layer of soil - about 10cm deep is a good start.
The best time to water plants is early in the morning.
Rainwater is better than tap water. This is because rainwater has a higher nutrient content of nitrogen and oxygen which plants need to survive.
Put indoor plants out in the rain occasionally to help wash off any dust on the leaves. This will help clear their pores (stomata) and allow the plant to absorb more light to grow.
Don’t use boiling hot or freezing cold water to water plants.
Both underwatering and overwatering can cause leaves to wilt.
Indoor plants generally don’t need as much water as outdoor plants.
Platypus Plants delivers healthy, beautiful plants straight to your door with great packaging and top-notch customer service. The whole process was easy and enjoyable, and the plants arrived in perfect condition.
Unrelated but they also gave me the best tips on how to make an amazing sticky chaitotally unexpected but much appreciated!
Looks like they own a boxer too I hope they bring it with them next visit!
The plants I wanted are hard to get so I ordered online from Platypus Plants and am very happy with the friendly helpful staff who delivered to my garden at Capalaba. The plants are very healthy and I will definitely buy from them again and recommend Platypus to all gardeners - they also source plants that are not listed on their site.
Great price, great quality and amazing customer service!
Great quality plants for a great price! The plants were just as described / pictured and they look very healthy! Customer service was amazing and the delivery process was fast. Couldn’t be happier. Will definitely be ordering more plants in the near future! Thanks Marvin!
Awesome team, they were in touch all the way from order placement to the delivery. The best plants were picked for me and delivered without any issues. Keep up the good work
I ordered 5 of these Strelitzia Nicolai from Platypus Plants. The quality of the plants is outstanding, they are so healthy and strong. The best Strelitzia I have ever seen. Marvin and Karli were also very lovely, and the plants were delivered quickly. I will buy all my plants from here in the future. 10/10 recommend!
Very happy with plants purchased. Plants were priced reasonably and delivery was free due to amount ordered. Plants were delivered as scheduled and with friendly service. No need to buy plants anywhere else.
