Houseplant hacks: is summer rain a ‘spa’ for indoor plants?
You might think tropical plants would love a warm shower, but even in summer the UK’s weather is unpredictable
The problem
Indoor plants accumulate dust on their leaves, mineral deposits on their soil and a general staleness that comes from living in the same spot, in poorly ventilated air, for months at a time.
The hack
