Put these 3 kinds of flowers in your home for fresh air and higher humidity, so the elderly and children get sick less often

Put one pot of these "3 kinds of flowers" in your home for fresh air and higher humidity, so the elderly and children get sick less often. Practical

As people's living standards rise, more and more people like to keep a pot of flowers at home. According to surveys, the higher people's living standards are, the more inseparable their lives become from flowers, plants and greenery. Keeping a pot of flowers not only improves the taste of your home, but also improves the air environment, and the process of caring for them can also cultivate the mind and character, so why not do it?

But recently some flower friends left comments saying they just want to keep a few potted plants at home that can purify the air, and asked Xiaohua whether there are suitable potted plants to recommend. Based on this, Xiaohua is sharing this today. Let's take a look!

Put one pot of these "3 kinds of flowers" in your home for fresh air and higher humidity, so the elderly and children get sick less often. Practical

Ivy

Ivy is a particularly beautiful foliage potted plant. Placing one pot indoors is especially fresh and beautiful, with a particularly southern charm. It is suitable for placing in the study and the living room, and its ability to purify the air is super strong. One pot of ivy can absorb methanol and benzene released by furniture and decoration as well as impurities in the air, bringing benefits to people's health. The elderly and children get sick less often, and it is especially practical!

Care is as follows:

1. Light

Ivy does not like strong light. Generally, for home care it needs to be placed in a spot with diffused light and good ventilation. Especially in summer, not only should it be shaded, but it should also be sprayed with more water to cool it down.

2. Watering

Ivy likes water and needs to be watered often. Especially during the growing season, water it generally once every 2-3 days. There must be no standing water in the pot, and its leaves need to be sprayed with water every day.

3. Fertilizing

Ivy is a foliage potted plant and likes nitrogen fertilizer, so flower friends are advised to water it once a month with fermented soybean water, so that it can grow well.

Snake plant

The snake plant is a foliage potted plant with long, slender leaves. With its huge leaves, the snake plant has a particularly beautiful plant shape. Keeping one pot at home, whether placed in the living room, study or bedroom, is very suitable, and its ability to purify the air is also very strong!

The snake plant can powerfully remove methanol from the air, and can release a large amount of oxygen, bringing great benefits to people's health. Especially in newly decorated homes, keeping a few pots lets the elderly and children live with peace of mind!

Care is as follows:

1. Light

The snake plant likes light, so when caring for it at home, it must be placed in a spot with bright light and good ventilation, but it must not be exposed to blazing sun. In summer it needs to be shaded, so that it can grow well.

2. Watering

The leaves of the snake plant can store water, so it is relatively drought-tolerant. The potting soil is best kept on the dry side, so we do not need to water it too much. Just water when the potting soil is dry and let it dry out between waterings. There must be no standing water in the pot, and its leaves need to be sprayed with water often, so that it can grow well.

3. Fertilizing

The snake plant needs a large amount of nitrogen fertilizer. Flower friends are advised to water it twice a month with fermented soybean water, so that the snake plant can grow relatively well. But the golden-edged snake plant needs an extra application of phosphorus fertilizer once a month, so that the golden edge of the snake plant can have clear texture; otherwise it will become lighter and lighter.

Spider plant, pothos

Spider plants and pothos are both relatively common foliage potted plants. Flower friends see them fairly often, and most people keep one pot at home. They are not only easy to grow and highly ornamental, but their ability to purify the air is also super strong. They are the first choice for purifying the air at home and for foliage potted plants, and they are especially good for the health of the elderly and children.

Care is as follows:

1. Light

Neither pothos nor spider plants like strong light. For home care, they need to be placed in a spot with a bit of diffused light but good ventilation. They must not be exposed to blazing sun or direct sunlight, otherwise the leaves of both pothos and spider plants will turn yellow and grow slowly.

2. Watering

Both pothos and spider plants need a humid environment. Compared with other potted plants, they need more watering. It is best to spray their leaves with water every day, but there must be no standing water in the pot.

3. Fertilizing

Pothos and spider plants are both foliage potted plants, so if they can be watered 2-3 times a month with fermented soybean water or rice-washing water, they can grow well.

If you like them, flower friends, you can keep a pot at home!
