#4 You need to take care of your plants well

Remember, plants will make your living space beautiful, but they will wither and die if you don’t take care of them! Do some research about how much water they need and observe how they’re growing. You might need to find out how to repot them when the time comes!

If you’re away for long hours at work, you could also opt for a self-watering pot. Amazing, right?
