Houseplants can be wonderful additions to any home! They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, so you can find the perfect one for your space. There are many types of houseplants, but right now, we're looking at those that need a lot of sunlight and prefer moist environments. To care for these plants properly, it's important to take into account their different needs.

These types of plants do best in humid and warm areas, such as near a window that gets diffused sunlight throughout the day and sometimes even direct rays from the sun. These plants may need to be misted with water several times a week so the air around them is humid. Paying attention to how often you water your plant is key; if it's too wet or too dry, your plant might not survive! To make sure your moisture-loving houseplant gets enough hydration without becoming waterlogged, consider sticking your finger into the dirt every few days to check its dampness levels before watering again.
