Care-plan updates

This requests updates. It does not add a plant to an app garden.

Give your rubber plant bright filtered light, let the upper mix dry, and change the rhythm when monsoon or AC changes the room.

Low-light, low-fuss indoor plants that survive real Indian flats—not showroom conditions.

Kamini flowers best with real sun, steady drainage and pruning timed after a bloom flush—not constant clipping.
