"Hypoestes phyllostachya (Polka Dot Plant) Houseplant Care [---] of [---] Commonly known as "polka dot plant" I like to call Hypoestes phyllostachya "confetti plant" because it looks like confetti especially when seen from far away. It can come in a variety of shades and leaf shapes making it pretty for some pops of color in the home. But make note: these plants can get really unkempt so it's advised to prune them to keep their cute shape. In this video I'll discuss where it is originally native to where I'm growing it in my home and basics like light watering and fertilizing. You can check out"

"Monstera sp 'Peru' Houseplant Care [---] of [---] This Aroid has been popularly called (though misnamed) as Monstera karsteniana. I always liked that species name (even though it was erroneous) largely because it reminded me of "Karst topography" which I thought was fitting given the coriaceous topographic nature of the Monstera sp. 'Peru' leaves. I also don't know why this hasn't gotten a proper species name yet as it's quite a popular plant in the market (though still hard to find in some parts). Whatever the case it's the #140 spot of "365 Days of Plants". The planter is one of those"
