Hi there

I am in the process of buying houseplants for certain rooms in the house, and I need to ensure they are placed within the room temperatures needed for them.

Preferably I need something digital and not too expensive, and something small enough, so I can move from room to room, if these exist?

I don't want to buy expensive plants for certain rooms, then find the room is too warm/cool, so they end up dying. As they have done previously Blush

I'm doing my homework first this timeSmile

Any help appreciated.

things like these, you mean?

I actually prefer a round dial. You can glance at it from across the room and the position of the needle will tell you if it is hotter or cooler than you want.

A biggish one is quicker to read. They are often on the gardening shelves. Black hands on white background are easiest to see at a glance, same as with watches and clocks.

Thanks, both.

They are exactly what I was looking for, addicted. Never thought of Amazon.

The clock looking ones are a good idea too, piglet.

I have seen the one I wanted on Amazon, and bought one very similar, and cheaper, from Ebay, with a large-ish digital display.

My houseplants are going to survive now Grin
