Grow These 5 Plants in the Living Room to Easily Create Your Own Plant Conservatory

Now, besides succulents and small potted plants, more and more people prefer to grow some large potted plants in the living room. Although they are a bit troublesome to care for, they thoroughly enjoy it. So today Huahua recommends a few green plants that you can grow in the living room, and you can turn your home into a plant conservatory too!

1. Areca Palm

If well cared for, the areca palm can stay green all year round, and it also grows fast. Last time Huahua visited a friend's home, she found her areca palm had grown so large that it had to be tied up with rope, otherwise the whole thing would droop down and could be used as a door!

The areca palm likes a semi-shady, humid growing environment, and is best grown in a bright living room. In summer we need to keep the air humidity around it high, and can spray water frequently, or use a damp paper towel to wipe the dust off the leaves.

2. Monstera

The monstera's leaves are quite unique, with green leaves that split, and its purifying effect is also very good! Its potted plants come in large and small sizes, so it is convenient whether grown in the living room or the bedroom. Just imagine coming home to such a pot of green plants, and any tiredness will be swept away.

Now the weather is getting hotter and hotter, so we need to move the monstera to a shaded place, away from direct sunlight, and at the same time appropriately increase watering to keep the soil moist.

3. Fiddle-Leaf Fig

The fiddle-leaf fig looks quite artistic. Its leaf shape is just like a violin, and if paired with a retro flower pot, the effect is both beautiful and grand!

Because the fiddle-leaf fig's leaves are fairly large, we need to spray water on its leaves often, and can apply fertilizer appropriately during its growing period, so that its leaves become green and glossy!

4. Dragon Tree

Because the dragon tree carries a very good meaning, many people grow a pot of it at home or in the office. It not only serves a decorative purpose, but its purifying effect is also great! Because it grows relatively fast, we need to prune it regularly, otherwise letting it grow freely will make it look especially messy!

5. Rubber Tree

The rubber tree is not as soft as rubber. Its leaves are a dark green and fairly thick, making it look quite spectacular overall. We can place the rubber tree in a spot with scattered light. As long as it is not in direct sunlight for long periods, it is fine. We should also water it often and wipe its leaves, so that its leaves become glossy!
