Thank you for choosing a gift that grows! Your Everlasting Magenta dish garden is a curated collection of premium indoor plants designed to bring lasting beauty to your home. Follow these simple tips to keep your garden lush and vibrant.

 

Light & Placement ☀️

Find the Sweet Spot: Most plants in this garden thrive in bright, indirect sunlight.

 

Avoid Harsh Rays: Keep the basket away from direct, hot afternoon sun, which can scorch the delicate leaves.

 

Temperature: These plants are happiest in standard home temperatures (65°F–75°F) and should be kept away from cold drafts or heating vents.

Watering Wisdom 💧

The Finger Test: Check the soil every few days. If the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, it’s time to water.

 

Watering Technique: Pour water slowly near the base of the plants, avoiding the leaves. Ensure the soil is moist but never soggy.

 

Magenta Carnations: To keep your fresh magenta carnations looking their best, you can mist them lightly with water once a day.

 

Ongoing Love & Maintenance

Fresh Blooms: Once the seven magenta carnations have finished their show, gently remove them from the garden.

 

Long-Term Growth: As your plants continue to grow, you may eventually want to move them into individual pots to give their roots more room to flourish.

 

Feeding: You can use a standard indoor plant fertilizer once a month during the spring and summer to encourage new growth.

 

With proper light, thoughtful watering, and occasional maintenance, your Everlasting Magenta dish garden will remain a beautiful and long-lasting addition to your home. As the plants mature and evolve, small adjustments will keep them healthy and thriving—ensuring this living arrangement continues to bring joy well beyond its first bloom.
