House Plants
When plants are exposed to mercury-containing paints used as a mildew retardant, severe leaf drop problems occur. For most foliage houseplants, soluble fertilizer given once a month should be plenty until spring.

MG Tip: HOUSEPLANTS
Most house plants are tropical in nature and our homes do not mimic their growing environment. House plants are a great source of pleasure when we are unable to garden outdoors during the winter months, as well as adding to the overall decor of a home.

MG Tip: POTTING HOUSEPLANTS
When the roots fill the pot or the soil dries out very quickly, it is time to move the plant to a larger container. Add a layer of potting soil and place the plant on top of this.

Houseplant Care
Cover the pot so no soap enters the soil. Foliage plants whose roots grow out of the bottom of the pot need to be repotted. The new pot should be no more than 2 inches larger in diameter than the pot the plant is in.
