FIELD FAQ / 02
Beginner questions we hear in store
Which beginner plants suit Hong Kong flats?
Start with forgiving foliage that tolerates general indoor or window-side light. Check each product card’s care specs, or WhatsApp a window photo for 2–3 picks.
How often should I water a starter plant?
There is no fixed calendar. Let the top soil dry slightly, then water thoroughly and empty any standing water in the saucer. Specs are on every card.
Can I visit before buying?
Yes. Walk into our Causeway Bay showroom to compare leaf condition and pot size. No booking needed during opening hours.
