How to clean your
indoor plant leaves?

The most effective method for plants with large, smooth leaves such as monstera, ficus, philodendron, strelitzia, or alocasia. A simple microfiber cloth lightly dampened with room-temperature water is sufficient.

1. Lightly dampen a microfiber cloth — not soaked, just damp.
2. Gently support the leaf from underneath with one hand.
3. Wipe from the base to the tip, in the direction of leaf growth.
4. Flip the leaf over and clean the underside as well — this is where pests hide.
5. Let air dry — do not wipe with a dry cloth, as this creates streaks.

For plants that tolerate water well on their leaves (pothos, dracaena, spider plant, schefflera), a lukewarm shower once a month is the quickest and most thorough method. It cleans all the leaves at once, rinses off pests, and hydrates the foliage.

1. Place the plant in the shower or sink.
2. Rinse with lukewarm water (never cold) at low pressure — no powerful direct jet.
3. Allow the water to drain completely before returning it to its place.
4. Do not put the plant in direct sunlight immediately — water droplets create a magnifying glass effect that can burn the leaves.

Some plants have hairy or textured leaves (kalanchoe, gloxinia, some begonias, cacti) that do not tolerate moisture on their surface. A soft-bristled brush — a clean makeup brush works perfectly — can remove dust without water contact.

Gently brush the entire surface of the leaf, sweeping the dust downwards. Always work in dry conditions, in a well-lit area to see the dust.

For leaves that have lost their natural shine — often due to limescale deposits or depleted substrate — a specific revitalizing treatment restores their luster while nourishing them. To be used after basic cleaning, on clean and dry leaves.

This type of treatment is particularly effective on ficus elastica, philodendrons, scheffleras, and all naturally thick and shiny foliage.
