    The location of a houseplant is very important. When a houseplant is best placed in half-shade , the best location to place this houseplant is about 2-3 meters away from the window. Do you want to place your new houseplant directly in front of a window? Then only do that in front of a window on the North, so your houseplant does not get too much sunlight. Other locations to place the green houseplants in this category are, for example, next to a window, under a balcony or in front of a small window. Why for a smaller window? Less sunlight will shine in here! 

    Why are these houseplants in half-shade?

    These houseplants absolutely cannot stand direct sunlight. If you do put these houseplants in direct sunlight, the leaves will dry out and the houseplant will not last long. Half-shade also means normal daylight. The most important thing is that these houseplants do not end up in full sun! So they can have a little sunlight. 

    What happens if you put these houseplants in full sun?

    If your houseplant is too much in full sun, the leaves will discolor. Usually these then turn yellow. When you put houseplants that are used to full sun in the shade, you will quickly notice a difference in the growth of the houseplant. In addition, the leaves will also fall out! So always pay attention to the ideal location for the houseplant that you purchase.
