Nowadays more and more people treat growing flowers as a fashion; some like to admire their blooms and smell the floral fragrance; some like to admire their leaves, which are lush and green and very beautiful.
Today Huajianke will also introduce 3 kinds of green plants that are excellent foliage plants, with thick and glossy leaves and luxuriant branches and leaves, well worth getting!
1. Clivia
Clivia is a "celebrity" in the plant world, with basal leaves that are thick and glossy, leaf shapes resembling swords, leathery dark green leaves, and bright red flowers that last as long as 30-50 days, making it an excellent plant for both foliage and flowers.
Clivia is a semi-shade plant, suitable for care in loose, fertile, and slightly acidic soil; it likes a moist environment, but watering requires special attention, as long-term waterlogging can easily cause root rot, so it is best to keep it in a well-ventilated place for care; it dislikes direct strong light, and in summer, when the light is too strong, it will scorch the leaves, so it needs proper shading.
2. Snake Plant
The snake plant is mainly grown for its foliage; its leaves are thick and glossy, and on the leaf surface there are irregular dark green cloud-like horizontal stripes, closely resembling a tiger's tail, very beautiful.
The snake plant is a desert plant with a certain drought tolerance. During care, maintain the principle of preferring dry over wet, and do not water too frequently, otherwise the leaves will turn white and lose their luster, reducing their ornamental value; although it is a desert plant, it also cannot be placed under the sun to bake, especially in summer, when the sunlight is too strong, it will also make the leaf stripes fade and turn pale, and in severe cases scorch the leaves. During the growing season, 1-2 applications of organic fertilizer can be given.
3. Jade Plant
The jade plant is also a plant liked by many flower enthusiasts, with thick and glossy leaves and a peculiar leaf shape like green jade, evergreen all year round, with white flowers; when in full bloom, green and white intermingle, creating a distinctive scene.
The jade plant likes a warm, dry environment with ample light. Because its stems are fleshy and its leaves are thick, it has good drought tolerance. When watering, follow the principle of watering when dry and watering thoroughly when wet; in the peak growing season, you can water a bit more to promote sprouting and growth. It fears strong light, so in summer it needs proper shading, otherwise the leaves can easily be "baked."
