Find the right light
Match the spot to the plant.
Step by step
- 1
Observe the light
Watch the spot in the morning and afternoon to see when direct sun reaches it.
- 2
Move gradually
Try filtered window light for a monstera. Move sun-loving plants into stronger light gradually.
- 3
Watch new growth
Watch new growth. Stretching can signal low light, while bleached patches after a move may indicate sun scorch.
Common mistake
Moving a shade-grown plant straight into harsh afternoon sun.
In practice
A flowering hibiscus generally needs a sunnier spot than a monstera.
