Fertilizing House Plants


Potted plants need to be fertilized, especially if in the same pot and soil for a long period of time. Many types of fertilizers are available and any may be used according to label directions. Select one which gives the best results for existing growing conditions.

Do not fertilize dry plants as the roots may be burned. Water, then fertilize in a day or two.

Resting house plants need no fertilizer.
