These 3 flowers hate the sun; a little too much light turns their leaves yellow, yet they thrive even more when kept in the living room

Not all potted flowers love sunlight. Some flowers have very unique growth characteristics and are not very dependent on sunlight, so placing them in the living room is a good choice rather than on the balcony. Below are the 3 flowers that fear "sun" the most; a little too much light turns their leaves yellow, yet they thrive even more when kept in the "living room"!

The first sun-fearing flower: potted pothos (Epipremnum aureum). Pothos originally grows under the forest canopy, in places with only scattered, weak sunlight. As an ornamental plant, pothos is suitable for a bright spot indoors. In summer it definitely must not be exposed to the sun, but in seasons with low temperatures it is still better to give it a little sun. What should you do when your pothos is almost scorched by the sun? Trim off the bad leaves and put it in a bright spot indoors; the living room is fine too. It fears direct sunlight and is very easy to grow; a cutting will take root and survive, and you water it once the soil has dried out completely.

Pothos does not have a strong tendency to lean toward light. But in autumn and winter in the north, to make up for the lack of temperature and photosynthesis, the light intensity should be increased. At the same time, when the temperature is low, open the windows as little as possible, because the leaves may be frostbitten within an extremely short time. When watering pothos, do not pour the water directly into the pot; instead, first slowly pour the water in, wait for it to seep down, and then spray evenly, waiting for the water to penetrate. In addition, you should also spray water on the places where aerial roots grow, to reduce insufficient water absorption by the roots caused by overly rapid evaporation.

The second sun-fearing flower: potted asparagus fern (Asparagus setaceus). Asparagus fern likes partial shade and dislikes strong light. If it is placed in direct sunlight for care in summer, it is extremely easy for the branches and leaves to turn yellow and wither. At this point, the pot should be moved to a cool place, and the branches and leaves should be sprayed with water frequently to increase air humidity. When the damage is mild, most can recover to their original state.

The key to caring for asparagus fern is watering. Watering too frequently and too much makes the branches and leaves prone to yellowing, poor growth, and easily causes root rot. The amount of water should be adjusted according to the plant's growth condition and the season. In the three seasons of winter, spring and autumn, watering should be properly controlled; generally, water again once the surface of the potting soil looks dry. If you find the water amount hard to judge, you can also alternate between light and heavy watering.

The third sun-fearing flower: maidenhair fern (Adiantum). Maidenhair fern likes shade and fears light; it cannot grow smoothly under strong light. As a potted plant, it should be placed in half-day shade or under indirect light in a shed, and in summer it must not be exposed to the sun. During the growing season, water it thoroughly. Normally you can water once a day; in summer you can water twice a day, and maintain relatively high air humidity.
