Control Indoor Plant Lighting with Automated Window Treatments

We've kept indoor plants as long as we've had an indoors to keep them, but in the last few years, plant parenting has taken off as a popular hobby. Unsurprisingly, people love filling their homes with beautiful greenery and flowers. It can be an enriching pastime, but unfortunately, it can also be overwhelming and stressful if you see your plants begin to suffer and die.

Benefits of Indoor Plants

Not only do they liven up decor, but indoor plants also have a lot of other benefits backed by science. Research has shown that having more indoor plants can lower blood pressure, less anxiety, better focus at work and school, and cleaner air in the home.

If you're looking for a very easy-to-take-care-of indoor plant, known as one of the best at removing impurities from the air, go for a spider plant. Spider plants thrive in low light to bright indirect light, usually only need watering once a week, and provide little spider plant babies to share with your friends or take up more spots in your plant-friendly spaces.

Speaking of light, let's talk about window treatments and indoor plant lighting issues.

Hunter Douglas Automated Window Treatments to Control Indoor Plant Lighting

The two most common culprits to indoor plant death are improper watering and lighting. We highly recommend using a self-watering device or planter. There are even apps that remind you when each of your plants needs a shower. The great news is that you can automate your plants' natural light intake, too. At Premier Blinds in Edmond, Oklahoma, we are Hunter Douglas window treatment specialists, and we'd love to help you find the perfect window coverings for your home.

"Alexa, my spider plant needs sun." You could set your smart device up in fun ways to control your home's indoor plant lighting needs. Or you could just tell it to open your blinds or shades. Either way, you'll have more control over how natural light enters your rooms with Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation.

 Set up a schedule on any smart device and plan your opening and closing options according to when the natural light enters your plant's area at ideal times. Even when you're not at home, you can make sure your plant is drinking in the ideal amount of sun every day.

 You can also use the remote to move your motorized window treatments up and down, opened and closed, depending on how you want them at any given moment. Sometimes the sun just hits the exact spot your eyes are in, trying to watch television, and all you have to do is hit a button for relief.

 We automate a lot of things in our homes, connecting many to smart devices. With windows being such a big part of our lives, it's no surprise that people also love the ability to automate them.
