Find your light

-

Forget about certain rooms being better for certain plants – all that matters is how much sun they’ll

receive. “All plants need light and none will do well for long in a very low- or no-light position,” Craig says. “As a general rule, approximat­ely 2-4m from a north-facing window is the Goldilocks zone of bright, indirect light; and 50cm-2m from a south-facing window

is filtered or shade light.”
