"splash cold water on your lovely arrangement"
Star not at all. It is a good point.
When you put an arrangement together you should try to match your arrangements that they all need the same
growing,light,water conditions.
I have been doing it so long it works for me. Especially with the water needs. The roots of the bigger
plant will take out the extra moisture and my
plants seem to do better grouped together.
I brought in over 100 houseplants this Fall. It is strange what totally unrelated
plants survive together. Just like in a garden. It is a trial and error.
