About Pot Verde

Pot Verde is a small-space plant blog. We write for people who want real houseplants and a working herb pot — on a windowsill, a balcony, or a tight corner of an apartment — without the fluff and without miracle promises.

You’ll find practical guides on getting started, individual plants, low-light spots, indoor herbs, everyday problems, and composting when you don’t have a yard. The site is bilingual (Brazilian Portuguese at the root, English at /en/). The two versions are not carbon copies: window light, seasons, and watering habits flip with the hemisphere, and the writing follows that.

Who it’s for

Pot Verde is for apartment dwellers and anyone growing in a small space. If you’re choosing between a ZZ plant and a pothos, if mint has taken over the pot, or if the leaves went yellow overnight, that’s the conversation we want to have here.

This is not a landscaping magazine for big gardens, and it isn’t a clinic. It’s an urban growing blog for people who share sunlight with the building across the street and still want to snip some basil.

Why you can trust us

We don’t promise what we can’t stand behind. We won’t claim a plant “cures” anything, and we won’t pretend there’s one watering schedule that works in every climate. When a tip depends on light, season, or the pot you’re using, the article will say so.

The guides are original and written for small spaces. If something is off or out of date, we’ll fix it. When the site starts showing ads (including Google AdSense), we’ll be upfront about it: advertising helps keep the project going, but it doesn’t buy the advice in the post.
