If you plan to repot a houseplant, the experts at Poplar Nurseries are on hand to provide all the help, advice and materials you need. To repot your houseplant, carefully remove your plant from its current pot – simply turn your new plant sideways, hold it gently by the stems or leaves, and tap the current pot until the plant eases free.

Gently loosen the plant's roots and remove any old potting mix. Add your new potting mix to your new pot and water as required. Then you should be ready to enjoy your houseplant for many more years to come.
