Tips for selecting an Indoor Tree
There are a wide variety of indoor trees and plants available today. When you've made the decision to purchase an Indoor tree or any live plant there are a few questions you may have.
How much light will my indoor tree need?
Most of the indoor trees sold today prefer bright indirect light. Locate indoor trees near a southern window when possible but an eastern or western exposure will work as well. The ideal light situation is ambient light rather than direct sunlight.
How much water does an indoor tree need?
Watering potted plants is not as complicated as it may seem. There is no set schedule but deciding if the tree needs water is as simple as sticking your finger in the soil. If the soil feels wet then there's no need to water.
The soil in a pot dries from the top down so if the top is dry, It's ok to water. Typically indoor trees will need water once per week during the growing season.
How tall will an indoor tree get?
This will vary from tree to tree. Palms, for instance, will get to 6 feet or so ficus trees including Fiddle Leaf Figs can get to 10 to 12 feet tall. We always tell people that an indoor tree is like a fish in a tank. The fish will naturally not outgrow its space, neither will an indoor tree.
Simply pruning the growing tips of a taller tree will stop it from growing taller and will force it to branch and become denser.
Are there any indoor trees that are clean air plants?
Yes, Palms are some of the best clean air plants available, Palms are easy to grow and function very well as clean air plants. Ficus are also very effective air cleaners.
Are there any Pet-friendly Indoor Trees?
Palms are very pet-safe plants. There are other plants that are clean-air plants. Dracaena is also a great plant for this purpose. Areca Palms have been found to produce more oxygen than snake plants which were once thought to be the best indoor clean air plants.
