Plants are what keep the environment healthy and lively. They clean the air and provide us with oxygen, and delicious fruits and vegetables. Having plants at once can make your house look decorated and more homely. Plants can also remind you of the simpler times or your house back in the villages, a thought which will surely calm you down during your tough times.

Since plants are so important to us, it is our responsibility to take care of them. When plants are kept around the house, they are likely to catch dust and grime. You must clean them every few days to promote better growth.

Dust The Leaves

The most basic way to keep your plants tidy is by dusting the dust flakes from over the leaves. All you need to do is take a dry cloth and mildly rub it over the leaves, flowers, and stems until the dust gets off. If there is grime on the leaves, take a wet cloth and do the same. For delicate leaves and flowers, make sure to take a soft brush instead.

Wash Or Spray

For plants (Evergreen Indoor Plants) which are in a much dirtier condition, you can simply wash them by watering them using a nozzle. This will easily wash off the dust and grime on plants. You could also instead spray water using a spray bottle and then gently clean it by using a cloth to wipe the stubborn grime off.
