Dmonde tip # Lighting up house plants in style.

Do you wish to have a cute little plant arrangement , but the lighting is an issue? 
Below I'm going to show you several ways we can achieve adequate lighting so that our house plants can look healthy and stylish!

Plant arrangements on side tables

A table /floor lamp fitted with an LED grow lamp focusing on the arrangement can look very stylish in any space and your plants are going to thank you for it!
We all lead busy lives, and plugging a timer to the lamp assures consistent light for your plants, and that can be one less thing to do in a day ....yay boy!
My side table is adjacent to a south-facing window and hence it gets a decent amount of natural light; however I noticed succulents tend to get leggy as they stretch towards the light. By Turing the grow on in the winter months at sunset for about 6 hrs , I have definitely seen a difference.

Plant arrangements on coffee tables

Yes, you heard that right! I love the miniature garden arrangement so much that I was really keen on displaying it on my coffee table, which has no power access. The USB-powered portable grow light (Amazon find) is an amazing product which offers great flexibility in-terms of its powering requirements. It can be powered from a powerbank - yes! The portable charging device we use to charge our phones. A 50,000mAh capacity can light up this light for 8 hrs for up to 7 days.
And I forgot to mention , it looks so darn stylish!

Now if you are not the one to go for the power bank option, this light also can be plugged in directly to the power socket using a USB power adapter.
This arrangement is well suited for the side tables which in most cases are towards a power source. The inbuilt timer on these portable grow lights is also a bonus.
Stay stylish always!
