A happy and healthy 2025 to all of you! I will, as I have for the past 6 years, keep sharing plant care tips this year! But, this year I'm adding a bit of a twist I hope is helpful to you!

In this, well let's call it an announcement, I'm also sharing my goals for this year to help you become a better plant parent.

Plant care videos

Back to top

I have a guide request form on my website that you've all been using for the past few years and this has helped me a lot to improve existing guides and write new plant care guides for you. I'm very grateful for your comments and suggestions, thank you!

However, some of these questions aren't something I can answer in a blog post, because they're very visual topics. For example: How much soil should I add to the bottom of my pot before adding the plant? You'd think that's pretty easy to answer using a blog post, right?

The problem is, the answer depends on the plant, the type of the pot, the size of the pot, the size of the plant, and more. To answer these types of questions, I'm going to start creating videos about these types of topics.

In fact, I would've already created one of these videos for you this weekend if it wasn't due to the fact that I've been sick for the past few days. Unfortunately, life happens and you can't control everything.

Membership program

But, plant care videos aren't all I'm planning on doing this year. You might have noticed that I've added a membership program to this website. Don't worry, you can still read plant care tips for free!

The reason I've added this program is this: Sharing plant care tips takes a lot of time and effort. I'm not one of those plant care experts that uses ChatGPT to generate my tips and tricks. I write my advice based on my own experience, a lot of real research, collaboration with you, and collaboration with experts.

Giving away this content to help you become the best plant parent you can be is and always has been my goal. But, life is expensive, and I've gone from full-time employment to part-time employment to keep giving you this content.

The membership program is there to give you extra tools to help become an even better plant parent, while also supporting my work. If that's not for you, no hard feelings! You can always keep supporting me by reading my guides and accepting the banner ads or buying my plant care guides. This is all very much appreciated as well!

Here are some benefits of the membership program, in case you're interested:

  • Free plant care courses
  • Plant care routine reminder service
  • Ad-free browsing experience
  • Members-only plant care guides

I think it provides a lot of value, and I hope you agree! If you're interested, you can become a member today.

(Free) plant care courses

And last, but not least, I'm working on several (free) plant care courses to help you become more confident in your plant care skills. Some of these courses will be part of the membership program, while others will be freely available to everyone. If you're interested in following any of these courses, be sure to sign up for the newsletter, because they'll be shared in there as soon as they are released.

Thank you for reading this post! I hope it helps you to keep your plants healthy and beautiful! If you're looking for more guides on specific plants, you can always request a plant guide to get a guide for the plant you have trouble with.
