Take your plant outdoors
The weather is clearing up, so let’s get outside! Once you found a perfect spot in the garden to relax, out of the wind and in the middle of the sun, then consider that your plants might actually would love to accompany you.

Many indoor plants can also go outdoors once the spring approaches. But pay attention that the temperature difference isn’t too big, otherwise they will go into a temperature shock, since they are used to a steady indoor temperature. Once the temperature at night drops below 10 degrees your houseplants need to go back inside. So check on them regularly if they still enjoy being outside, like when the leaves are turning brown, you might need to consider bringing them back indoors.
The Fatsia japonica for instance, can be held indoors, but sure loves stand outside in a shady spot. It will add an exotic touch to the garden. Just like the Strelitzia, however be careful when the sun is too bright, this will burn holes in its beautiful leaves. Additionally, pay attention that they get enough water during his outdoor experience.
Rather go for a dessert-look? Choose the Euphorbia Erytrea; tall and dramatic in its appearance due its sharp spines. Usually grown as a houseplant, but can occasionally join you outdoors.

Besides, this plant holds up well outside, since he stores water in its leaves.
Another plant species that loves to go on a trip outside are Yuccas. Once the temperature reaches 20 degrees, move them into a warm and sunny place outdoors. They hate humidity, that’s why it is wise to take them indoors when wet weather is acting up.
