Would you like to brighten up your (living) room with a real eye-catcher?

Then tropical houseplants are the perfect choice for you. Each tropical houseplant has a unique appearance and brings a touch of tropical atmosphere to every room. With Green Bubble's extensive range, you no longer need to buy expensive plane tickets to enjoy tropical vibes.

Origin of the tropical houseplant

Tropical houseplants come from rainforests around the equator, spread across South America, Southeast Asia and Africa. In these rich ecosystems, plants play a crucial role. For example, the Monstera provides shelters for animals with its impressive leaves. These plants are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also serve an important ecological function in their natural habitats.

The best location for tropical houseplants

Tropical plants are used to lots of light, but they often do not get direct sunlight because of the dense vegetation in their natural habitat. Therefore, they usually do well in a spot with lots of indirect light or semi-shade. Watch for signs of the wrong location: if the leaves darken and no new leaves appear, the plant is probably too dark. If leaves become dull and leaf markings fade, the plant may be too light.
It is also important to keep tropical plants away from heating elements, as these cause dry air that is not good for the plant.

Watering tropical houseplants

The water requirements of tropical houseplants vary, but they all come from humid environments. In spring and summer, most tropical plants need watering weekly or even two to three times a week. In autumn and winter, the frequency is lower. Always keep the potting soil slightly moist, but avoid stagnant water at the bottom of the pot, which can cause root rot.
The frequency of watering depends on the ambient temperature, light intensity, location, and the size of the plant and pot. Check the soil regularly and adjust watering based on the moisture of the potting soil.

Watering tropical houseplants

In their natural environment, tropical plants enjoy high humidity. Our indoor climates are often drier, so weekly watering helps the plant thrive. Spray the leaves and stem with a plant sprayer to increase humidity, remove dust, and prevent pests.

Flowering tropical houseplants

Besides their impressive leaves, some tropical plants can also flower. The Strelitzia Reginae is an example of a plant that, if it is over 4 to 5 years old and has the right conditions, can produce spectacular flowers. However, not every Strelitzia will flower. If flowering does not add to the aesthetic value of the plant, it may be better to remove the flowers to save the plant's energy.

Repot a tropical houseplant

Repotting is important for the growth and development of your tropical plant. Repot your plant every two years, preferably in spring, so that damaged roots can recover properly. Choose a pot 20% larger in diameter than the previous pot and use an insert sleeve for tall pots to prevent root rot caused by stagnant water.

Toxic tropical houseplants

Many tropical houseplants are mildly toxic. Touching the plant or contacting its sap can cause skin irritation. Also avoid consuming leaves or other plant parts.
