Cordyline plants are used in interior landscapes but this picture was taken of a Cordyline growing outdoors in a botanical garden located in a tropical climate. Indoor plants are generally plants that grow outdoors in temperate or tropical climates.
⚘ How This Website Started ⚘
Hi Plant and Flower People! I started this website in 2012 while helping my younger brother through a fight with terminal cancer. Between shopping, cleaning, cooking, laundry, doctor/hospital visits, and other tasks to help him, I taught myself HTML/CSS and other skills used in creating a website. My brother had a very successful stock photography website himself. His advice to me was to make a website about something you know.
I had left job in the interior landscape industry in 2012 to travel across the country to help him out. I began my first job in the plant care business in 1986 and have cared for thousands of indoor, tropical plants since that time. So, that became the subject of this website, indoor houseplant and flower care.
It does cost money for hosting service, domain fees, etc. to keep websites running. That is why I have third party ads/Amazon products and other affiliate links on webpages. Please use them if they are helpful to you as I earn commissions/ad revenue through them as they help offset costs for hosting, domain name, etc. Please also consider supporting this website with a donation, if you can. Any help is appreciated. Hope you find some helpful information here. Read on Plant People!
