JOMO Studio

is back — and we want to see you there. 🌿🌱

📅 August 1st
📍 Under the Gardiner (rain or shine!)

Here’s how it works:
Bring at least one plant you’re ready to part with/rehome → take home with you as many as you bring in. Your overgrown pothos, rooted cuttings, whatever (healthy) plant it may be, finds a new home. You leave with something you’ve been eyeing. Everyone wins!

🆕 New this year: each participant can bring one non-participating guest. Bring a friend, a partner, a sibling — whoever’s one plant away from becoming a plant person.

There will also be light snacks and drinks on-site, plus gift bags and prize draws after the swap. Stick around for those — trust us.

Sign up today! Follow our Instagram and check your emails for any updates closer to the date. We’ll keep you posted. 🌱

Put the spray bottle down 💧🌿

When AC season hits, the air gets dry — and plants feel it with crispy, dry leaf edges. The natural instinct is to mist them. But here’s the thing: misting doesn’t actually increase humidity like you might think.

Humidity is water vapour in the air, not droplets on a leaf that evaporate in seconds. And for some plants, constantly wet foliage can actually cause fungal problems, bacterial spotting, and crown rot.

What actually works:
💨 A humidifier near your plants — actually raises moisture in the air
🪴 Grouping plants together — they transpire and create humidity for each other

Save the spray bottle for cleaning leaves. Get a humidifier for the rest🌱

If you (or someone you know) love the idea of having plants but don’t want to deal with huge repots or massive leaves, these small-but-mighty plants are for you 👇

💚 Hoya Kerrii: The adorable heart-shaped leaf that grows very slowly. Perfect for desks, small shelves, or gifting to your favourite plant lover.

💨 Air Plants: These magical little plants don’t even need soil! Just give them a soak every week or so and let them air dry. Perfect for glass terrariums, shells, or even hanging orbs.

🌵 Haworthia: A compact succulent that’s cute, calm, and extremely forgiving. It’ll stay small and tidy, even if you forget to water it once in a while.

These small plants are easy care, less space, and just as much joy 🪴

Save this post for your next mini plant haul 💚

Wondering if your plant is actually happy? Here are 4 signs it’s thriving. 🌱

🌿 New leaves — fresh growth coming in light and soft is a great sign. New leaves also means healthy roots!

✅ Clean leaves — no spots, no mottling, no weird markings. That means no pests and no virus.

👆 No stickiness — run your fingers along the stems. Stickiness can mean pests are present. No residue? You’re good.

🍃 No leaf drop — and if it’s spring or summer with zero new growth, your plant might be rootbound. A repot could be all it needs to get going again.

Go check your plants right now and report back. 👀🪴

If your plant is declining and you’re changing everything at once — that might actually be making things worse. 🌿

Here’s why: every change you make is a new stressor your plant has to respond to. Light, water, soil, location — all at the same time is A LOT. And if something does help, you won’t even know which one it was.

The fix is simple (but hard to resist when you’re panicking):
Change one thing. Wait. Watch how your plant responds. Then go from there.

It’s slower, but it’s the only way actually to know what’s working.

🪴Save this for the next time you’re in full plant panic mode.

Succulents aren’t hard, but they’re not super easy as people make them out to be either! 🫪

Here are the two things that actually matter.

☀️ Light — more than you think
Succulents want the brightest spot in your home, right up against the window. If yours is going long and leggy, it’s reaching for light it’s not getting. No bright window? A grow light makes a huge difference.

💧 Watering — not never, not always
Two extremes kill succulents: ignoring them completely, or watering too often. When to actually water? Wait until the soil is fully dry (sometimes 2–3 weeks!), then water deeply until the soil is fully saturated. Then wait again.

🌱 That’s it. Get those two things right, and your succulent is well on its way.

Save this if succulents haven’t loved you back yet — it’s not you, it’s the light (or the water). 🪟🌞

ohhh nooo 😢 sorry sabrina 🫪
