Color, just like plants, can effect people, their emotions, and their responses. Color can be added to an interior not just in the paint on the walls. Plants are an excellent way of bringing color into the room whether it be the color of the foliage, the flowers, the pot it is in, or accessories with the plants. Black Black technically is not a color but a shade that can deepen the hue of a color. It is believed to make an item or a room look classier depending on the use.

Back in the olden days, when people were sick with a blood disease, blood was sucked out by leaches. With the advancement of medical science, that is no longer needed. Plants are similar to humans where sometimes they need to be leeched once in a while to clean the soil. There is a proper way to do this to help the plant grow healthy. Why should I do it? The reason why plants have to be leached is because salts (minerals) in the water build up on the surface of the soil and make it difficult for plants to uptake the water. The salts fill in the little gaps between the particles of soils. It is like when you have a milkshake with cookie pieces. As you suck, the pieces slowly gather around the base of the straw, making it difficult for the milkshake to move through the straw. How do I recognize that my plant needs to be leeched? The plant will start to wither and show signs of not getting enough water (limp leaves). On the surface of the soil, there will be a white residue ...
