Getting started with houseplants can be overwhelming, and there is a lot of confusing and conflicting information out there. If you've ever searched something like "why does my plant have yellow leaves," you probably received a variety of answers, including that it's overwatered, underwatered, has pests, needs fresh soil, etc. The tough thing about houseplants is that all of these could be true. This is part of what makes houseplants challenging.
Having a "green thumb" is a matter of learning how to care for your plants and recognizing their needs. The goal with this guide is to give you solid guidance on caring for your houseplants while dispelling common myths and misconceptions. Hopefully, this will increase your confidence with houseplants.
Keep in mind that you may (and probably will) still kill plants, and that's okay! It's part of the learning process and happens to everyone.
