Summary

From fiddle-leaf figs to money trees to snake plants, it's probably safe to say that we've all killed a house plant at some point in our lives. This Sunday, we're joined by Kate Ferguson, the co-founder of Flourish, whose mission is to make sure your house plants are absolutely thriving. She answers several pressing house plant questions including the best low-maintenance plants, common mistakes to avoid, which indoor plants are subtle flexes, over or under-watering your plants, repotting, and more.

and 30s, moving into our own apartment, paying off student loans, or even getting a dog.

But above all, there's one simple act that propels you directly into adulthood and that
