Placed at home, these green plants not only purify the air but also relieve stress. Set out 1 pot, and just looking at it puts you in a good mood. Below is a brief introduction for friends.
3 kinds of "fortune-changing" trees - even if they're expensive, you should buy 1 pot and place it in the living room, with the meaning of "keeping you healthy and safe"!
First kind: Radermachera sinica (China doll) potted plant
Radermachera sinica plant meaning: happiness and peace. Radermachera sinica is the representative tree of Hawaii. Because people believe it can bring happiness, many people place it in front of their homes. You can write your wishes for happiness on a card and hang it on the tree. As for the names "happiness tree" and "peace tree," most were coined by flower and plant sellers to cater to consumers' psychology, based on certain characteristics of the plant and adding people's expectations of blessing, wealth, and peace.
Care for Radermachera sinica potted plants: The watering schedule is different in every season. In spring, it's best to water once every 2 or 3 days. In summer and autumn, temperatures are higher, so you need to water once every 1~2 days. In winter, temperatures are lower, so you don't need to water too much - just once every 7~8 days. When watering, also pay attention to the weather - it's best to water on sunny days, and never water on cloudy days.
Second kind: Jade plant (Crassula ovata) potted plant
When a jade plant blooms, it symbolizes good fortune and auspiciousness. Its other name is "Swallow's Palm," and its general flower meaning is good fortune. This tree is very easy to keep - as long as there is sunlight, water, and soil, and the temperature doesn't drop below 5 degrees, it can stay green year-round with no special secrets. But seeing it bloom also takes luck. It's grown more in the south, and it generally takes ten years, and it will only bloom if all kinds of growing conditions are just right.
Care for jade plant potted plants: Anyone who knows it knows it isn't very cold-tolerant. It generally prefers a dry, well-ventilated environment, and it isn't very demanding about soil - as long as the soil is loose, fertile, and well-draining, that's fine. Generally, sandy loam is the best choice. After choosing the soil, we need to mix it - generally mixing some leaf mold, garden soil, and river sand together. In addition, because it is very drought-tolerant and very afraid of soil that is too wet, when choosing soil, make sure not to use soil that is too wet.
Third kind: Lucky bamboo (Dracaena sanderiana) potted plant
Because of its beautiful appearance, it is mainly used as a potted ornamental plant, and its ornamental value is high. Lucky bamboo symbolizes "flowers blooming in wealth and honor," "bamboo bringing peace," great fortune and success, and a lifetime of wealth - its name comes from this, and the beauty of lucky bamboo is inseparable from its auspicious name. It has slender, elegant leaves and emerald green foliage, and its stem nodes show a feature resembling bamboo joints, though it is not true bamboo.
Care for lucky bamboo potted plants: In spring and autumn, give it a moderate amount of extra light - 3~4 hours of light per day - to keep the leaves' bright color. In summer and autumn, shade it appropriately and spray water once a day to wash dust off the leaf surface, making growth more vigorous and the leaf color greener. During the growing season, keep the potting soil moist at all times, and never let the potting soil dry out - especially in midsummer, spray the leaves often; if it's too dry, the leaf tips and leaves will dry up.
