Our Paw-Friendly House Plant Bundle is ideal for filling your home with plants without having to worry about your furry friends nibbling the leaves. Aptly named, this indoor plant mix comprises a Boston Fern, a Watermelon Peperomia, and a Surprise Star Prayer Plant and is completely safe to leave around pets. The worst you need to worry about is the cat knocking a pot off the shelf!
The Boston Fern is an incredibly popular house plant, featuring bright green fronds that arch out into a glorious shape. Particularly well-suited to bathrooms and kitchens, Boston Ferns reach an eventual height of 90-120cm, thrive in humid environments and look equally good on a shelf or spilling out from a hanging basket.
With leaves resembling the skin of its namesake fruit, the Watermelon Peperomia is one of those plants that looks like it belongs anywhere. Indeed, it is just as attractive on an office desk as it is on a living room sideboard. Pale green leaves are striped with a darker shade of green, producing a distinctive yet subtle appearance. Watermelon Peperomias grow to an ultimate height of up to 30cm and are the perfect addition to any house plant collection.
Calathea Surprise Star is an eye-catching houseplant boasting dark green leaves patterned with rose-pink. Also known as a Rose Painted Calathea, the plant’s leaves close together in the evenings like hands in prayer, hence the common name, Prayer Plant. Reaching an eventual height of up to 60cm, a Surprise Star Prayer Plant adds a touch of beauty to any room.
Whether you choose to display your new house plants together or separately, they don’t need a huge amount of attention to flourish. Place each plant in indirect light or partial shade, taking care not to choose a position where strong sunlight can cause leaf scorch. Water weekly, when the top 2-3cm of soil feels dry and reduce watering during the autumn and winter months when the plant isn’t growing.
Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.

House Plant Size Guide
House plants come in a wide array of shapes and sizes depending on the variety and maturity of the plant.
6cm/12cm/15cm/19cm/23cm nursery pots are the most common size of pot that they are sold in. This measurement is the diameter at the top of the pot.
12cm potted plants are the most popular providing great value for money and an instant impact. Larger plants that come in pots of 20cm+ are great for making a statement in any room and can represent years of growth to get to that level of maturity and size.

Top Tip
Avoid placing these plants in direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorching.
How to Water
Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry to the touch. During the growing season, this is typically once a week, but always adjust based on the environment. Reduce watering in the winter months when growth slows. Ensure excess water drains away to prevent root rot, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Use filtered or rainwater to avoid mineral build-up on the plant’s leaves.
How to Plant
To plant your Indoor Plant Mix, choose pots with good drainage holes and use a quality houseplant compost. Gently remove each plant from its nursery pot and loosen the roots if they appear compacted. Position each plant at the same depth as in its original pot, filling around it with soil and firming gently. Place the pots in a bright location with indirect sunlight, avoiding direct exposure to prevent leaf scorching. Water lightly after planting to settle the soil.
