There's an art to giving flowers: who gets which flower, and get it right for wealth to pour in

In today's society, giving cut flowers as a gift feels impractical, since they wilt after just a few days. Better to give a potted flowering plant instead. But giving flowers to different people also has its own rules. Today Huahua will explain it all to you, so whatever you do, don't give the wrong one!

For elders, choose these 4 kinds of flowers!

1. Kalanchoe (Kalanchoe blossfeldiana): health and longevity

When giving to an elder, of course you want them to be in good health, so you can give a pot of kalanchoe. Kalanchoe's blooming period can last several months, and it is fairly drought-tolerant, so it will bloom abundantly with hardly any care!

2. Monstera deliciosa: health and longevity, bringing fortune and wealth

Monstera deliciosa has broad leaves shaped like a turtle's back, and in China the turtle symbolizes longevity, so it is also very suitable to give a pot to the elderly. Monstera deliciosa needs frequent watering, about once every 3-5 days in spring and autumn; keep the humidity up and it will grow vigorously!

3. Rohdea japonica (Japanese sacred lily): good fortune and wishes come true, evergreen forever

Rohdea japonica is often used to describe the elderly, so it is suitable for giving to elders, hoping they live as long as the southern mountains. Generally just keep it indoors in the living room or another spot with good indirect light. Normally water when you see the soil has dried, and don't let water accumulate in the pot and rot the roots.

4. Various bonsai: elegant and refined taste

If you don't want to give the flowers above, you can also choose to give some bonsai, such as pine and cypress, ginkgo, red maple, and so on, to express your respect for your elders.

For a housewarming, choose these 4 kinds of flowers!

1. Fiddle-leaf fig (Ficus lyrata): instant class

These days people care more and more about looks when decorating, and the fiddle-leaf fig counts as one of the trendy internet-famous plants of recent years. Give one pot when a friend moves house, and its lush green is very beautiful and generous!

2. Spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum): purifies the air

Since it's a newly renovated home, of course you should still give a pot of spider plant to purify the air! Spider plants can absorb harmful substances in the air such as benzene and formaldehyde, and they are also especially easy to grow, very suitable for giving to friends!

3. Clivia (Clivia miniata): noble and elegant

If you think foliage plants alone are too plain, then why not go for a pot of clivia! Clivia not only has glossy green leaves, but its flowers are also very beautiful. Grow one pot in autumn and winter and it can bloom for several months; it is simply a must-have for the home!

4. Money tree (Zamioculcas zamiifolia): wealth rolling in and big fortune

When a friend moves to a new home, you can also give a pot of money tree, hoping your friend will have wealth rolling in and make a big fortune. The money tree is actually very easy to grow; place a pot at home in autumn and winter and it will basically stay lush green with hardly any care!

For a new store opening, choose these 4 kinds of flowers!

1. Money tree (Pachira aquatica): wealth pouring in

If a friend's shop or company is opening, you can give a pot of money tree, meaning congratulations on getting rich and wealth pouring in. The money tree is also very easy to grow; it's fine even if you water just once every 1-2 weeks. Placed at the entrance of a shop or company, it is very fitting.

2. Lucky bamboo (Dracaena sanderiana): prosperity and good fortune, wishes come true

Lucky bamboo symbolizes rising step by step, and it can grow vigorously even in water alone, so it is very suitable to give a friend a pot to keep on their office desk. Basically changing the water once a week is enough.

3. Phalaenopsis orchid: booming business, everything going smoothly

The phalaenopsis orchid looks like little butterflies fluttering, and its color is purplish-red, so it is very suitable to give a friend a pot when they open a business. Phalaenopsis can grow with indirect light, but if you want it to bloom, it still needs more sun.

4. Kumquat bonsai: good luck and attracting wealth

Flower lovers who don't want to give flowers can also give a friend a pot of kumquat bonsai. It's best to choose plants with lots of fruit and bright colors, looking heavily laden with fruit. Normally keep it in the sun and just make sure the potting soil is slightly moist.
