When it comes to adding greenery to your home or garden, choosing healthy plants is crucial for ensuring they thrive. Buying plants from a nursery can be an overwhelming experience with so many options available. But with a few expert tips, you can confidently select plants that will flourish in your care. Here’s your go-to guide on how to buy healthy plants at the nursery, along with how Karat Farms makes plant delivery easy in Bangalore!


Tips for Choosing Healthy Plants


1. Check the Leaves


  • Look for vibrant, green leaves without yellowing or browning. Healthy plants should be free of pests, so inspect both the tops and undersides of the leaves for any signs of infestation.


2. Examine the Stems


  • The stems should be firm and sturdy, not soft or limp. A healthy stem supports the plant’s growth and is a good indicator of overall health.


3. Observe the Roots


  • If possible, check the roots. Healthy roots should be white and firm, not brown or mushy. If the roots are visible through drainage holes, they should not be circling tightly; this indicates root-bound plants that may struggle to grow.


4. Look for Signs of New Growth


  • New leaves or buds signify that the plant is actively growing and healthy. Avoid plants that appear stagnant or have no new growth.


5. Choose the Right Pot


  • Make sure the pot has proper drainage holes. Plants in pots without drainage are at risk of root rot due to excess water retention.
