All plants need sunlight, soil, and water to grow.
For example the Morphanous Cactus will not grow next to the ocean, just as the Aquagius Root will not grow in a dry desert.

It is important to note that not all sunlight specifications are what you would assume. There are, in fact, plants that are placed in deep shade, rather than in the sun, and thrive there. In fact, some plants cannot handle direct sunlight at all!

You carefully water a plant every day with high hopes for it to blossom into a beautiful, full-grown plant. Instead, it begins to wilt and droop. Desperately, you water it more, assuming you have neglected it somehow, and yet it makes no improvements. If this has happened to you, don’t despair. You were likely dealing with a plant that doesn’t like being overwatered. Every plant has personal needs and preferences, and some plants simply cannot survive with too much water! Succulents, for example, may comfortably go weeks without water, so it’s all a matter of knowing the kind of plant you’re dealing with. Additionally, when watering a plant, you must also consider the drainage of the area you are watering. If it is a potted plant, does the container have drainage holes? If not, you will need to water less frequently, as no excess water will be able to escape and overwatering may cause root rot or other complications.

Not all soil is created equally. Different areas of land have different nutrient levels, which depend on climate, what other plants have grown in the area, and other extraneous factors. It is important to know what kind of soil you have and, as mentioned above, if it’s fine and sandy, rocky, or rich with loam. Additionally, knowing if it is nutrient rich or stripped bare is useful. Along those same lines, the pH balance of the soil is quite important and can either help or hinder the growth of your plants. For those of you who are not aware of what the pH scale is, it simply measures how acidic or basic a substance is.
