Clivia (Clivia miniata): Water once every half month; do not water completely thoroughly. Right after watering, place it on a balcony with weak sunlight to cool for a few days; otherwise, the roots will rot from being too wet. It should not be exposed to strong sunlight.
Dragon Whisker (Asparagus densiflorus): Likes water; water once a week, water thoroughly, and give it appropriate sunlight.

Money Tree (Pachira aquatica): Does not like water. Spray a small amount of water every 20 days, or pour a little water into the saucer. It must not be exposed to sunlight. If it is often watered thoroughly all at once, it will die. Water cautiously.
ZZ Plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia): Does not like water. Spray a small amount of water every half month, or pour a little water into the saucer. It must not be exposed to sunlight.
Dracaena fragrans: For pot cultivation, use fertile soil rich in humus and with good drainage; it can be made by mixing leaf mold and river sand. Dracaena fragrans is drought-tolerant but not waterlogging-tolerant. During the growing season, it can be watered thoroughly. Dracaena fragrans fears cold and freezing; in winter it should be placed indoors in a spot with ample sunlight, and the temperature should be maintained at 5°C-10°C. Water once a week. Main pest: sugarcane borer - the sugarcane borer mainly feeds on the fleshy cortex of Dracaena fragrans as larvae.
Azalea (Rhododendron): Likes cool, ventilated conditions and avoids high temperature and intense heat; likes partial shade and avoids scorching sun; likes moisture and avoids dryness; likes acidic soil and avoids alkaline soil; likes well-drained pine needle soil and avoids waterlogging; if drainage is good, more water can be given, and the leaf surface should be sprayed with water often.
Camellia (Camellia japonica): Camellia is a shade-loving flowering shrub and requires about 50% shade. It grows well under light shade and fears exposure to sunlight. If exposed to direct scorching sunlight, the young leaves are easily scorched, causing weak growth and affecting flowering. In summer it likes cool, humid conditions, and in winter it likes a warm environment. The general suitable growing temperature is 15-25 degrees, and the flowers and leaves should be sprayed with water often. It fears drought and avoids waterlogging. It grows well only in fertile, loose, well-drained, slightly acidic sandy soil, and will gradually die in alkaline or waterlogged soil.
Poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima): Likes a warm, humid environment and is not cold-tolerant; likes ample light and is not shade-tolerant; it is not strict about soil quality, but likes fertile, loose, well-drained, slightly acidic soil.
Milan (Aglaia odorata): Likes warmth and humidity, fears dryness, and is not cold-tolerant; likes sunlight and is not shade-tolerant; likes fertile, loose, slightly acidic sandy soil.

It welcomes distant guests to brew fragrant tea."
Bird of Paradise (Strelitzia reginae): Likes sunlight and is not tolerant of the scorching summer sun of the north; likes warmth and is not cold-tolerant; requires moderate temperatures in winter and a cool, humid environment in summer; likes humus soil with good drainage and air permeability.
Bleeding Heart Vine (Clerodendrum thomsoniae): Likes warmth and humidity and is not cold-tolerant; likes ample sunlight and fears direct strong light; likes fertile humus soil with good drainage and air permeability.
June Snow (Serissa japonica): June Snow is an evergreen or semi-evergreen small shrub. It likes a shady, humid, warm climate, is not cold-tolerant, and is not strict about soil. It likes humus soil with good drainage and air permeability. In summer, provide moderate shading; in winter, a room temperature above 10 degrees is enough for it to overwinter safely.
