Whether you're too cold to head into your garden during winter without 10 layers, or don't have an outdoor garden at all and only keep houseplants, winter is an ideal season for indoor gardening.
The winter season does come with a few changes for houseplants. If you operate business as usual, you will notice signs of stress in your plants, from wilting leaves to discolouration. Most houseplants do not go 'dormant, as one might expect, but they respond to environmental changes by slowing growth and taking a little winter break.
If you want to stop your houseplants from looking sad this winter (or worse, dying on you before spring even arrives), follow these easy steps. Luckily, you don't need to change much-it's a less is more approach that will benefit you and your houseplants in the long run.
You will see fewer leaves and new stems
