Mischler’s Florist & Greenhouses

Stop in & check out Mischler’s houseplant collection

Plants boost your mood and add a cool vibe to your indoor space.

We have large floor plants all the way to beginner-sized 3-inch pots.

For beginners, try a spider plant. It makes loads of pups (little spider plants). Pop them into some soil & share with friends.   

If you have lower light conditions, try peace lily, snake plant or something in the Chinese evergreen family.

Succulents: easy & beautiful

Succulents are easy to care for– they thrive on neglect! Overwatering even one time can rot the roots and kill the plant, but they can bounce back from drying out. If your container has good drainage and you don’t water too much, your succulent will be happy.

Most require full sun (especially in winter) but some, like varieties of jade and aloe, can handle indirect light.

Some succulents grow slowly, which makes them perfect for windowsills or desks. Others grow quickly and make good statement plants.

There are all sorts of leaf shapes available, including rosettes, spikes, tubes and soft scalloped edges.

There are so many succulents to choose from. Here are highlights of just a few varieties:

• Echeveria: These popular rose-shaped plants tend to stay compact. They need full sun.
• Kalanchoe: These fast-growing succulents are enjoyed most for their foliage, but do have interesting blooms.
• Haworthia: Many of these have translucent windows on leaf ends. They prefer indirect light and are slow-growing.
• Senecio: This genus includes the popular ‘String of Pearls’, but also includes upright shrub-type plants.
• Aloe: This genus includes the “burn plant” Aloe vera, but also many lovely decorative varieties.
