As people's living standards improve and get better, more and more flower lovers like to keep all kinds of potted green plants at home, which not only purify the air but also beautify the environment. Keeping some flowers and plants at home can also make the home warm and natural, and is of great benefit to the health of family members.

Of course, growing different flowers also depends on local conditions and varies from person to person. Many netizens run into green plants they cannot keep alive, and in many cases it is because they do not understand the growing habits of the flowers, or because they water too much, water too little, or provide insufficient light. But today I want to share 6 common water-loving plants that can be grown directly in water; as long as you add water, the plants will grow dense and robust, and you never have to worry about killing them. So the topic I am sharing today is:

6 plants that super "love" water, grown in water with "green leaves and vigorous roots", suitable for beginners

Pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris)

Pennywort is a plant with a very good meaning; keeping it at home symbolizes bringing in wealth and treasure. It not only has a good meaning, but pennywort is also very easy to grow. Generally, as long as you find a stem with roots and put it in water, it can survive.

In daily care of pennywort, you can grow it directly in water. Insert the pennywort stems straight into a bottle with water, change the water once a week using sun-dried tap water, then place the pennywort in the living room or on a balcony with scattered light, and add 1-2 drops of nutrient solution to the bottle each month; this way it will grow emerald green and lush. During daily care, there is no need to worry about watering too much or too little; just make sure there is water in the bottle.

Bowl lotus (miniature lotus)

Bowl lotus is a plant that loves water very much and is generally grown in water, but to ensure the plant grows dense and robust, you usually need to put some soil in the bottom of the pot and then add water. Many people like to grow a pot of small bowl lotus at home; when it blooms in summer, it is very beautiful and elegant.

Generally, when growing bowl lotus at home, just make sure to change the water once every 2-3 weeks to keep the water clean. Then, every spring and autumn, supplement the pot with nitrogen fertilizer; you can choose to add 1-2 drops of nutrient solution to the pot each time you change the water. There is a little trick to remind everyone: when caring for bowl lotus, choose an opaque, light-blocking pot, so that water cotton will not form in the pot and the water quality stays clear.

Pothos (Epipremnum aureum)

Pothos is a very popular household potted plant. Keeping it at home can not only green the environment but also absorb formaldehyde and purify the air. Generally, when growing pothos at home, it can be grown in soil or in water.

The method for hydroponic pothos is very simple. After cutting off robust pothos stems, trim off the bottom leaves, insert them directly into clean water, and roots will grow in about a week. In daily care of pothos, just make sure to change the water once every 1-2 weeks. Then each month add 1 drop of nutrient solution to the bottle water or add 3-5 granules of quick-acting compound fertilizer, which helps the pothos grow.

Spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum)

Flower lovers who have grown spider plants know that spider plants have very thick fleshy roots. Generally, they can be grown in soil or in water. Placing a spider plant at home is not only attractive but also easy to care for.

The method for hydroponic spider plants is very simple. Wait until the spider plant sends out new shoots, then cut off the new shoots and insert them directly into water, and they will grow pure white roots. Place the potted spider plant on an indoor balcony or in the living room, with scattered light, which will make the leaves turn emerald green and robust.

Hyacinth (Hyacinthus orientalis)

It is now the cool autumn season, which is also the season when many hyacinths go on the market. Generally, hyacinths can be grown in water or in soil. If you choose to plant hyacinths now, they will bloom beautifully when winter arrives.

Generally, when growing hyacinths, people choose a clean glass flask and grow the hyacinth in clean water, and it will grow pure white roots and send out emerald green leaves. Place the plant on a warm balcony and it will grow very well. Generally, before winter arrives, when changing the water each week, add one drop of nutrient solution to the bottle, which can speed up plant growth.

Lucky bamboo (Dracaena sanderiana)

Lucky bamboo is a very popular household plant. Keeping it at home carries the meaning of good fortune and wealth. Most lucky bamboo is placed in the living room or entryway at home by hydroponics.

The method for hydroponic lucky bamboo is very simple. Cut the base of the rootless lucky bamboo you bought at a 45-degree angle, soak it in a 0.2% rooting powder aqueous solution for ten minutes, then take it out and insert it directly into a vase. In about ten days, the lucky bamboo will grow pure white roots. In later care, you need to change the water for the lucky bamboo once every 1-2 weeks, and each time you change the water you can add 1 drop of nutrient solution, which helps the plant grow emerald green leaves.

These 6 common hydroponic flowers can be kept at home and survive just by adding water. The growing method is very simple, and they are very convenient to care for. Flower lovers, hurry up and give them a try.
