How to read plant care instructions/What do the numbers on my plant care tag mean?

Generally, the greater the number, the more of that resource a plant needs. For example, a rating of 5 for sun means a plant of this type prefers bright, indirect sunlight. A rating of 3 for water means a plant should be watered fairly regularly when just the top inch or so of the soil dries out (depending on plant size). A rating of 1 for water means that this type of plant prefers to have its soil dry out thoroughly between waterings. Please keep in mind that these are just general guidelines and that individual plants will vary in their care needs, depending on their species, the size of the plant, whether the plant is in an active growth period, and environmental conditions (such as temperature, humidity, etc.).

Whom do you sell to?
