It is a favorite house flower of many gardeners of all ages, a compact, sweet plant with bright and beautiful flowers. Violet is quite whimsical - personally in my experience and in the experience of friends. However, as the comments of lovers of these flowers on the Internet say, caring for these plants is simple, but you need to follow a number of rules:

“And I have them, about two hundred ... There are no special problems. I water under the root, feed once a month, in winter, I illuminate with lamps.

“I have a lot of violets, it’s not whimsical, the only thing you need to water is only in the pan, in winter once a week, in summer twice a week, well, to stand on the sunny side, I stand on the window in the kitchen, the sun is there in the second half days-bloom 10 months a year.

“2 main conditions - do not pour and do not put in direct sunlight. I water mine once a week.

Violet reproduces conveniently: a leaf placed in water gives roots.

Gloxinia

“Gloxinia (lat. Gloxinia) is a genus of plants of the Gesneriaceae family. Named after the German or Alsatian botanist and physician Benjamin Peter Gloksin (1765-1794)."

As we can see, violet (saintpaulia and gloxinia are from the same genus of plants of the Gesneriaceae family. Gloxinia is very similar to violet, has a different leaf shape, larger flowers, sometimes in the form of bells. Propagated by tubers and cuttings, seeds.

Anthurium

In the photo, the Decembrist in bloom

We call this flower the Decembrist. Despite the fact that experts do not classify it as a capricious plant, according to the experience of many of my friends, it is quite sensitive to any adverse effects. It got its name because it blooms in winter, in December.

In addition to winter time, against the background of other flowers, it is gray and inconspicuous, and during flowering, the whole attitude towards it is manifested: if there was good care, the Decembrist will bloom profusely, with beautiful buds, if the care was bad, one or two pale flowers will come out.

Camellia

“Camellia (lat. Camellia) is an evergreen plant of the Tea family (Theaceae). The most famous species is Camellia sinensis (Chinese Camellia, or Tea, or Tea Bush), from the leaves of which raw materials for making tea are obtained. Many species of camellia are used in ornamental horticulture."

Indoor camellia is a beautiful plant, especially in flowering form. Capricious. You cannot move from place to place.

Geranium

Without geranium, it is impossible to imagine an old grandmother's house in the village, its smell, which causes either a headache or a slight clouding, cannot be separated from the memories of parents and grandmothers for many.

Pictured is a geranium

Azalea

"Azalea (lat. Azalea) is the collective name of some beautifully flowering plant species from the genus Rhododendron (Rhododendron)."

Pictured is an azalea

All rhododendrons are very beautiful, azalea, of course, stands out against the background of all indoor green pets, a miniature plant similar to rhododendron, rose, camellia. Very fastidious, capricious, often just dries out with good care.

Judging by the statistics of flower purchases at auctions and queries in search engines, Russians are actively interested in home plants.

As we see from history, many flowers came to us from the subtropics, hot countries. Africa is one of the richest countries in potential domestic plants.

Among domestic plants quite poisonous: spurge, dieffenbachia, crassula, evergreen spitting, trichocereus cactus, Persian cyclamen, dioscorea, autumn colchicum, common oleander, common tick, cinnabar clivia, Japanese euonymus, aglaonema changeable, etc.

photo of poisonous plants

As for superstitions and the fact that a certain flower brings happiness - of course, this is all “feng shui” in a Russian way, a money tree will not help to earn money, and, given the poisonousness of the plant, although not fatal, it will rather harm than help. But there are such moments as the impact on the atmosphere in the house, for example, the monstera emits carbon dioxide at night, and it is better not to put it in the bedroom (also do not forget that it is poisonous). Citrus and conifers refresh and purify the air better than other plants.

And green pets with oval and round leaves have a more positive and softening effect on the psychological state of people, relieve aggression due to the fact that the smooth forms of natural plants contribute to the adoption of balance. As well as plants with sharp lines, they rather provoke impulsiveness, aggression, but, of course, all this is not unambiguous.

Also, Russians love and plant the following plants at home:

Rose (room varieties)

fruit citrus fruits

Tradescantia

chrysanthemums

Hibiscus

orchids

Balsam

Inflorescence - cob, thick, cylindrical. Flowers at the base of the cob are sterile, above - bisexual.

Dieffenbachia photo

Many housewives love to decorate an apartment with flowers. Some like tall palm trees and plants with large, fleshy leaves. Others enjoy unusual flowering. But everyone wants to buy a plant that will complement the interior, making it cozy. For example, many people like dieffenbachia. At home, the plant rarely reaches a height of 2 meters. At the same time, specimens are often found in nature (in tropical forests), where only leaves grow up to 50 cm. Depending on the external color and size, various types of plants are distinguished. The most common are dieffenbachia spotted and multi-banded. It was from them that numerous varieties of this beautiful home flower originated.

In the apartment of each of us must have furniture. Did you know that tables, chairs, cabinets and beds use formaldehyde and other harmful substances that release toxins into the air? Dieffenbachia perfectly absorbs them, releasing oxygen. The plant also purifies the air of xylene and toluene, absorbs harmful fumes that are released when working with household chemicals. It is not surprising that this home flower is recommended to be grown by all those who live near large industrial enterprises, highways, in megacities.

It contains alkaloids that can cause swelling or irritation. Moreover, the reaction does not always appear immediately after contact with the skin.

This will get rid of possible problems.
