Must-Have Feng Shui Plants for the Home to Bring Rolling Wealth - Beautiful and Easy to Grow
Plants have a spiritual quality, and we Chinese pay attention to this too. So when growing plants at home, you can choose some feng shui plants. For example, these 5 common ones are quite suitable, and they are also very easy to grow.
1. Money Tree
The money tree is evergreen all year round, with thick, deep green leaves that look as if coated in a shining glaze under the sun, full of vigorous life. With one long and one short leaf, one thick and one thin, it is also known as the "dragon and phoenix tree," symbolizing the bringing in of wealth and prosperity and honor and riches. It is a very popular feng shui plant.
The money tree should be placed in a spacious and bright place at home. Placed correctly, it can grow even more lush. As for watering, water when the soil is dry and let it dry out between waterings. The principle is to water more in summer and less in autumn and winter, and normally just keep the potting soil on the dry side.
2. Kalanchoe
Kalanchoe has fleshy leaves, rich colors, and beautiful flowers, and its blooming period is especially long. Its meaning is also very good, representing health and longevity, blessings, wealth, and well-being. Especially for families with elderly people, it is very suitable to keep a few pots at home.
Kalanchoe is also very easy to care for. It likes a sunny environment, and it grows well when given plenty of light. In summer, be careful not to expose it to harsh sun. Kalanchoe itself is a succulent plant and is relatively drought-tolerant, so when it comes to watering, excessive watering is not recommended.
3. Money Tree (Pachira aquatica)
The money tree governs wealth luck and represents prosperity in wealth. Whether grown at home or used commercially, it is very popular. And there is another point: besides having a good meaning, the money tree also has the ability to purify the air, so keeping it at home is not a loss at all.
The money tree must not be kept in a dark place for long periods. It grows well in full sun or partial sun environments. If the light at home is not good, it should still be kept in a bright place. As for watering, the money tree definitely must not be watered too much, as it easily suffers root rot. Generally speaking, watering once a month is not considered little, and it is still very easy to grow.
