Below are a few ideas of things you can get although none are mandatory 😊 the most important thing is to have fun with it, buy that crazy but cute decorative pot or that weird looking plant

Liquid fertiliser.  
Perlite, orchid bark, sand to make your own soil mixes.  
Humidifier (plant dependent).  
Indoor potting mat to help you with easy repots when needed.  
Moss poles for trailing/climbing plants.  
Clear nursery pots w drainage so you can monitor roots and watering.  
Cinnamon is always handy as it’s anti fungal for if you see any white mould on the top of the soil/ have to battle fungus gnats.  
Isopropyl alcohol to clean any snipping tools.  
Yellow sticky traps on hand for gnats.

I always recommend this fertilizer! It’s amazing, has 1000’s of five star reviews on Amazon. And you can use it on literally any plant.

Also, this book is by far the best book i have found that has literally any information in it you could want. I highly recommend it for any plant lover, novice or experienced. It also can be found on Amazon.
