DID YOU KNOW?
Here's a worthwhile professional tip to share. When washing your vehicle's windows, don't forget to roll it down a bit and wipe the top edge! This is an area that normally doesn't get cleaned and could build up some serious bacteria.

If you’re looking to add a little life to your living space experts say bringing the garden inside can boost your happiness and your health. Just like picking paint and furniture, it's important to spend time choosing the best plants for your interior and make your space unique to you. Not only should you be considering the care your new plant friends will need, but also how they will impact your space as they grow to their full forms. Here are several tips for picking the best houseplants.

Understand sun exposure. The quickest way to shrivel a houseplant is by giving it the improper amount of sunshine. Take time to get to know the sunniest and shadiest parts of your home, and pick plants that thrive in that environment.

Consider maintenance. If you're choosing houseplants that need a good amount of TLC—water, trimming, etc.—make sure you have the time in your schedule and bandwidth in your brain to take this on. If not, pick a plant that needs minimal attention, like a succulent.

Pick proper containers. Learn the root length of the plant you're choosing, and how big it's likely to grow, and then pick a container that can accommodate it.

Consider color. While varying shades of green can feel gorgeously lush, no need to stop there! Add a splash of color to your interior with orchids, peace lilies or prayer plants.
