The interior designer's favourite. Needs bright, consistent light and protection from drafts. Place near a north-facing window for best results in Pakenham homes.

Indoor Plant Care Tips for Pakenham

Winter Care

Pakenham winters are cold — indoor temperatures can drop significantly overnight, especially in newer homes with large windows. Keep tropical plants away from cold glass. Reduce watering by half in winter as plants grow slowly. Don't fertilise between May and August.

Summer Care

Summer heat and air conditioning both dry out indoor air. Mist tropical plants regularly or group them together on a pebble tray filled with water. Move plants back from west-facing windows to avoid afternoon sun burn.
