# Can I water all my houseplants with distilled/ filtered water? Do…

_Publié par Carly 🤍 le 2025-05-13_

Can I water all my houseplants with distilled/ filtered water? Do some actually prefer tap water? I noticed some of my plants are lime, fluoride, etc. sensitive/ don’t like tap water, I’m thinking of just watering all of them with filtered water. Any thoughts?  
Thank you!

Distilled water!  
It’s the best option!

I water all my plants with filtered water.

Some are sensitive to it, mostly carnivorous is my first thought at least with only distilled. But ik some benefit from the minerals but hate chlorine. U can always add a water conditioner, but its best to research which dont like a ton of stuff in the water. My madagascar jasmine absolutely needs conditioned water or distilled.

I use only filtered water.

For my sensitive bamboo , I use spring water because it doesn’t like chlorine.  
I don’t keep distilled water around , so I don’t have experience using it for plants.

Man that’s the best water to give any plant especially those with variegated leaves.
