8 Flowers and Plants Suitable for Both Men and Women, There Is Always One for You

Flowers Suitable for Women to Grow

People often say women are like flowers, not only because women have flower-like beauty, but even more because women have flower-like qualities: the proud spirit of plum blossoms, the quiet elegance of chrysanthemums, the grace of orchids, the delicate beauty of peonies. Women who love growing flowers understand life even better. If you are also a woman who loves life, the editor recommends these flowers for you~

1. Orchid

Recommended for: Noble and elegant

"Its spirit, like an orchid, never changes; its heart, like an orchid, never wavers." "Finding a secluded orchid to give to a kindred spirit, one branch is enough to gift in a dream of Xiaoxiang." The orchid's flower color is understated and elegant, clear without being muddy.

With one pot in the room, fragrance spreads all around, and you suddenly feel full of life. On the day it blooms, waves of delicate scent make you feel vibrant and relaxed.

Care tips:

Light: In spring and summer, orchids are best shaded with reed curtains, or placed at an east- or south-facing ventilated window indoors. Orchids under the curtain should have their pots turned once every half month, so the orchid receives light on all sides, which helps the plant grow evenly.

When the cool autumn arrives, move the potted orchid out from the shade and let it bask in the morning sun for half a day, but note that autumn should not be dry. In cold weather, place it under a south window indoors to overwinter, but it does not need to be too warm; it is best to add a plastic film cover to maintain proper humidity on the leaf surface.

Water: For orchids, eight parts dry and two parts moist is best. During the flowering period and the period when leaf buds sprout, water less. When watering, pour from the edge of the pot; do not pour directly overhead, and do not water at noon. Rainwater and spring water are best.

2. Asparagus Fern

Recommended for: A scholarly air

Asparagus fern has slender branches and leaves, upright and graceful, dense yet fresh green, fresh and elegantly understated; placed in a study, it adds even more of a scholarly atmosphere.

Care tips:

Watering: Water is the key point in cultivating asparagus fern. Too much watering and overly wet potting soil can easily cause root rot; too little watering will cause leaf tips to wither, scorch and turn yellow.

Therefore, during watering, it should be determined according to the weather, growth condition and dryness or moisture of the potting soil, following the rule: do not water when not dry, and when watering, water thoroughly. In hot, dry weather, you can spray water on the leaf surface to increase humidity and lower temperature; in winter, water less.

Fertilizing: During the growing season, apply a thin fertilizer containing nitrogen and phosphorus 1 to 2 times per month to encourage lush branches and leaves; other liquid fertilizers are also acceptable. Note that during the flowering period, do not fertilize too much; in May to June and September to October, applying liquid fertilizer twice each time is enough.

3. Mint

Recommended for: A faint fragrance

The whole mint plant has a fresh green fragrance that makes people feel relaxed and happy. Freshly picked mint can be used directly to make tea, and it can clear the mind and brighten the eyes, so it is very suitable for girls to care for.

Care tips:

Light: Mint likes an environment with sufficient light, which can promote mint flowering.

Temperature: Mint has strong adaptability to temperature. Its rhizomes overwinter and can tolerate a low temperature of -15°C. Its most suitable growth temperature is 25°C-30°C. When the temperature is below 15°C, growth slows; when above 20°C, growth speeds up. At 20°C-30°C, as long as water and fertilizer are suitable, the higher the temperature, the faster it grows.

Soil: Mint is not strict about soil requirements; ordinary soil can be used for planting, with sandy soil being best.

4. Spider Plant

Recommended for: Easy care; can be grown in water or soil

Spider plant branches are slender and drooping. It blooms small white flowers in summer or when temperatures are high in other seasons. The flowers are concentrated at the ends of the drooping branches, with yellow stamens, and the small tender leaves inside are sometimes purple, very beautiful.

Care tips:

Light: Spider plant likes a semi-shady environment. In spring and autumn, avoid direct strong sunlight. In summer, sunlight is especially strong, so it can only receive some slanting light in the morning and evening. When conditions permit, it is best to turn the flowerpot about 15° in a fixed direction every week to ensure the spider plant droops evenly.

Water: Spider plant likes a moist environment, and the potting soil should be kept moist often. In summer, watering should be sufficient; around noon and in the evening, water should also be sprayed on the branches and leaves to promptly wash off dust on the leaves and prevent the leaves from drying out. In winter, when below 5°C, water less; do not let the potting soil become too wet, otherwise the leaves will easily turn yellow.

Fertilizing: From late spring to early autumn, apply an organic fertilizer liquid once every 7-10 days. You may appropriately apply organic fertilizers fermented from bone meal, eggshells and the like. After full fermentation, take an appropriate amount of diluted liquid and apply it once every 10-15 days, which can make the flowers and leaves brightly colored.

Flowers Suitable for Men to Grow

Being a man is really not easy: a house, a car, a wife and children, such great pressure, you really need to grow a pot of flowers to ease your mood. Flowers suitable for men also have their particularities; they cannot be too delicate, and it is best if they will not die even without watering for a month, so Huahua recommends these flowers for you~

1. Cactus

No need to repot, no need to fertilize, does not take up space; water it when you think of it, and it definitely will not die of drought. Its vitality is especially tenacious, the best choice for men growing flowers.

Care tips:

Water: Newly planted cacti should not be watered at first; simply spray them several times a day. Only after half a month can a small amount of water be given. After one month, when new roots have grown, normal watering can begin.

In winter, when the temperature is low and the plant enters dormancy, watering should be restrained. After the beginning of spring, as the temperature rises, the plant's dormancy gradually ends, and watering can be gradually increased.

Fertilizing: Apply a fully decomposed thin liquid fertilizer once every 10 days to half a month. Do not fertilize in winter.

2. Snake Plant

Upright and firm, with a resolute posture, super strong adaptability to the environment, and a good ability to absorb formaldehyde.

Care tips:

Temperature: The suitable temperature is 18-27°C; below 13°C, growth stops. In winter, the temperature should not remain below 10°C for a long time, otherwise the base of the plant will rot and cause the whole plant to die.

Water: Watering should be moderate, not overly wet. From spring to autumn, growth is vigorous, so it should be watered sufficiently. During the winter dormant period, watering should be controlled, the soil kept dry, and water should be kept from pouring into the leaf rosette.

Fertilizing: Fertilizer should not be excessive. During the vigorous growth period, apply fertilizer 1 to 2 times per month, in small amounts. You can also evenly bury 3 holes of cooked soybeans in the soil at the edge of the pot, 7-10 beans per hole, being careful not to let them touch the roots. Stop fertilizing from November to March of the following year.

3. Money Tree

The money tree symbolizes bringing in wealth and treasure and good fortune. It is also easy to care for and has very little demand for water. Even if work is very busy, it does not matter if you do not water it for several weeks.

Care tips:

Watering: The money tree requires that the potting soil not be too wet, so the amount of watering should be appropriate, better less than more.

Fertilizing: The money tree grows vigorously and rapidly, so it needs relatively sufficient fertilizer. After potting and sprouting, spray a liquid fertilizer with the three elements once a week, such as a 500-600 times dilution of a compound fertilizer with nitrogen:phosphorus:potassium at 20:20:20.

In addition, apply an organic fertilizer or phosphorus-potassium fertilizer to the soil once a month. During the peak growing season, avoid applying only nitrogen fertilizer, to prevent leggy growth. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied in a balanced way to promote robust plants, keep the leaves emerald green, and enhance the ornamental effect.

4. Rubber Plant

The rubber plant is also called Black Prince. It grows vigorously, has thick leathery leaves, and is extremely shade-tolerant. Such a majestic and sturdy plant is of course an excellent choice for men!

Care tips:

Light: It likes bright scattered light and has a certain shade tolerance. It is not tolerant of strong sunlight exposure; when light is too strong, it will scorch the leaves, causing yellowing and scorched leaves. It should not be too shady either, otherwise it will cause a large number of leaves to fall and make the beautiful markings of variegated varieties fade.

Water: It likes a moist soil environment. During the growing period, water should be supplied sufficiently to keep the potting soil moist. In winter, watering should be controlled; when the temperature is low and the potting soil is too wet, it easily causes root rot.

Fertilizing: Apply a nitrogen-based fertilizer 2-3 times per month. In September, nitrogen fertilizer should be stopped, and only phosphorus-potassium fertilizer should be applied to improve the plant's cold resistance. In winter, the plant goes dormant, so fertilizing should be stopped.
