Light, water and fertilize. In winter, heat is important too.

Ensure they get the right amount of light, water regularly but don’t overwater, and use good-quality soil. Don’t forget to occasionally prune and check for pests!

Very good advice.

As a rule of thumb, I only water when the soil is about to be dry. If it looks ( or, if unsure, feel the soil gently with your thumb) moist - don't water.
Light is trickier cause it differs greatly between types of plants and growth stages.
fertilizer can help too.

That’s a solid approach! Letting the soil nearly dry out before watering is great for avoiding overwatering, which is a common issue. For light, you’re absolutely right—it depends on the plant. Some thrive in bright, indirect light, while others can handle lower levels or even direct sunlight. As for fertilizer, it’s a game-changer when used properly, especially during the growing season.

make them your friends.

I suggest to do interpretive dances around the plants to mimic the movements of the wind. This should make them feel like they’re in a beautiful meadow instead of your living room. 💃 🖼️

That is very true!

It is also a good idea to give them compliments! Say things like:
"Wow, you’re photosynthesizing like a pro!" 🌻
"You’re the Chrysanthemum of my life!"
"You rose to the occasion and made my day!" 🌷
"Hey Orchid, you’re the highlight of the room, such a bud-ding star!"
"You are simply iris-istible!" 🌸
The key lesson is to let you plants know that you are rooting for them. 🌿
