If you’ve ever bought a beautiful plant only to see it wilt within weeks, you’re not alone. Caring for indoor plants in Dubai can feel challenging—the desert heat, constant AC, and limited natural light all affect how plants grow. But don’t worry! With the right care, your Dubai plants can thrive and bring life to your home or office.

At Plant Studio Dubai, we’ve helped hundreds of plant lovers keep their greenery healthy. Here are 7 simple tips to make plant care easy:


 

1. Pick Plants That Love Dubai 

Some plants are naturally better suited for the city’s climate. Popular low-maintenance choices include:

  • Snake Plant

  • ZZ Plant

  • Peace Lily

  • Areca Palm

2. Protect Them from the AC 

Air conditioning dries out both leaves and soil. To prevent stress:

  • Keep plants away from direct AC vents.

  • Mist the leaves to increase humidity.

  • Try grouping plants together to create a mini-humid environment.

 

 

3. Water the Smart Way

Overwatering is the fastest way to lose a plant. Instead:

  • Check soil before watering—it should feel dry 2–3 cm below the surface.

  • Always use pots with drainage holes.

  • Water early morning or evening to reduce evaporation.


 


4. Light Is Everything 

Not every Dubai home gets enough natural light, so:

  • Place plants near east-facing windows.

  • Rotate them weekly for balanced growth.

  • Use grow lights if natural sunlight is limited.



5. Feed Your Plants 

Healthy plants need nutrients. Add liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during growing season.



6. Repot When Needed

When plants outgrow their pots, growth slows down. Signs include roots peeking out of drainage holes or soil drying out too quickly. Don’t want the mess? Plant Studio offers repotting services in Dubai.
