Don't keep narcissus at home however you like; when the weather is dry, beware of poor sleep at night

The weather has been especially dry lately, and many flower lovers like to put a potted plant in the bedroom. It not only looks nice, but can also add a little humidity to the air~ But the bedroom is a place for rest and relaxation, so you must not place just anything there, especially poisonous plants or ones with irritating smells, such as the following!

Chinese narcissus

Effects on the body

Narcissus is a traditional famous flower of China, but its bulb is poisonous. If you accidentally cut yourself or touch its sap, it can raise your body temperature and cause cold sweats. If swallowed, it can cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.

Suggested placement

Narcissus is pure, elegant and extremely ornamental. In winter, you can place a pot in the living room, on a coffee table, on a windowsill and other spots, which can make people feel calm and warm.

Perfume lily

Effects on the body

When perfume lily blooms, its fragrance is very strong and it is slightly poisonous. Smelling it for a long time makes people nauseous and dizzy, and people with sensitive respiratory tracts or poor heart health should be especially careful; in addition, its floral fragrance contains trace amounts of stimulants, which affect sleep.

Suggested placement

It is recommended to place perfume lily on a well-ventilated windowsill, or keep it outdoors on a balcony.

Night-blooming cestrum

Effects on the body

Night-blooming cestrum itself is not poisonous, but at night its fragrance is too strong. If kept indoors for a long time, it can make people dizzy, cause chest tightness, coughing and wheezing, and also cause symptoms such as insomnia and frequent dreaming.

Suggested placement

During the day it can be placed indoors or outdoors, but at night try to put it outdoors; the fragrance of night-blooming cestrum also has a certain mosquito-repellent effect, so when there are many mosquitoes you can place it on a windowsill with the window open.

Orchid

Effects on the body

The floral fragrance of orchids contains gases such as alkanes, aromatic hydrocarbons and phenols. If kept indoors for a long time, it can cause insomnia and headaches.

Suggested placement

If the bedroom is well ventilated and has good light, you can place an orchid that has not bloomed, but once it blooms it cannot be placed there; in addition, the living room, windowsill, balcony and so on are all good choices.

Lantana

Effects on the body

The floral scent of lantana is very foul, and most people cannot stand it; most importantly, its flowers and leaves are poisonous, and touching them causes itching, so people with sensitive skin should not touch it; in addition, it also releases a lot of pollen, which easily causes coughing and sneezing and is bad for the respiratory tract.

Suggested placement

Many people like lantana bonsai, which is very beautiful, but no matter how nice it looks, do not put it indoors. After all, no one likes their home to smell bad. It is best to put it on a balcony or plant it in the ground outdoors.

Daphne

Effects on the body

Daphne flowers have a very strong, pungent fragrance. If placed in the bedroom, once it blooms it easily irritates the nasal cavity, causing chest tightness, shortness of breath and a sense of dizziness, and it affects sleep even more.

Suggested placement

Daphne likes a semi-shaded, cool and well-ventilated environment. It can be placed on an east- or west-facing balcony, under the shade of trees outdoors, or in a corner of the living room with strong air circulation.

Chinese rose

Effects on the body

Chinese roses are very beautiful when in bloom. During the day they can be placed indoors for viewing, but at night it is best to move them out of the bedroom. The strong fragrance can make breathing uncomfortable and affect sleep quality.

Suggested placement

A south-facing balcony or west-facing balcony with plenty of light, or a well-ventilated windowsill, are all fine; planted in the ground by a wall or in a garden, they look even better.

Elephant's ear

Effects on the body

Elephant's ear is not only poisonous in the white sap inside its stems, but the water dripping from its leaf tips is also poisonous. If accidentally touched or eaten, it can make the skin numb and itchy; if it gets into the eyes, it can cause blindness.

Some time ago, someone accidentally licked a little of the white liquid, and as a result their tongue went numb and stung, and their nasal cavity swelled. Although they later recovered after seeing a doctor, for a long time afterward they had a foreign-body sensation in their throat. Everyone must be careful.

Suggested placement

Elephant's ear is quite dangerous. It is recommended that families with children not keep it. If you do keep it, place it in a higher spot, or else grow it outdoors.

Having said so much about flowers that cannot be placed in the bedroom, below Huahua will recommend two types of flowers suitable for placing in the bedroom.

These flowers can purify bedroom air

1. Snake plant, English ivy

Snake plant and English ivy can both absorb toxic and harmful gases such as formaldehyde and benzene. During the day they can also absorb carbon dioxide and eliminate the stale air of the morning, making them very suitable for placing on a bedroom windowsill.

2. Kalanchoe

Kalanchoe has relatively weak respiration at night, absorbs very little oxygen, and its floral fragrance is very light. Placed in the bedroom, it can make people feel happy and comfortable.

These flowers can promote sleep

1. Lemongrass

Lemongrass has a fresh lemon scent. It can sterilize and reduce inflammation, inhibit bacterial reproduction, and also treat migraines. It is very helpful for sleep.

2. Mint

Mint has volatile peppermint oil and aromatic hydrocarbons. It is cool and pleasant to smell, can sterilize and disinfect, repel mosquitoes, and also relieve mental stress and physical fatigue, promoting sleep.

In addition, chamomile, lemon fruit, dried jasmine flowers, dried lavender and so on also all have the effect of calming the mind and promoting sleep.

That is all for the key points of keeping flowers in the bedroom

Flower lovers, just remember two points:

Poisonous ones and ones with pungent fragrances must not be placed in the bedroom

The rest are basically harmless, and it is of course best if they can promote sleep!
