The home is bare: what plants are suitable for potted culture?
Potted plants can be called a good helper for beautifying the home, and there are many kinds of potted plants. Today I will recommend several potted plants for everyone.
Among large potted plants: Green Giant
Green Giant, commonly known as Green Giant White Palm, belongs to the Araceae family and the genus Spathiphyllum.
Origin and habits: Green Giant is a perennial shade-loving herbaceous plant. It is mainly distributed in Colombia and is one of the most popular indoor foliage plants in Europe and America. Green Giant likes shady, cool, and humid environments and fertile soil, and avoids drought, high temperatures, and direct sunlight. It can grow all year round in tropical and subtropical regions.
Morphological characteristics: Green Giant plants can reach 95 cm in height, with broad elliptical leaves, entire margins, and leathery texture; the leaf mesophyll is relatively thick; the leaf color is dark green; slightly covered with white powder, and the petiole can reach 43 cm in length. The flower form is a spadix inflorescence, shaped like a long spoon, and the flower color changes from white to green within 25 days. The inflorescence length can reach 1 m, and the spadix length is also around 15 cm. The flowering period is late spring and early summer. Green Giant has strong resistance to pests and diseases. When ventilation is poor, aphids and green stink bugs can occasionally be seen damaging the heart leaves. Strengthening ventilation can prevent this, and for potted plants, the leaves should be close enough to touch. Once pests are found, they can be removed by hand or killed with insecticides.
Ornamental value: Green Giant plants are majestic and imposing, with extraordinary bearing, and the gradually changing flower color can bring infinite reverie. It is an ideal potted flower for arranging large halls such as hotels, and it is also very impressive when placed in a larger family living room.
Among small potted plants: Golden Pothos
Generally speaking, potted plants under 30 cm are called small potted plants. When it comes to beautifying the home, Golden Pothos cannot be left out. Golden Pothos is an all-green vine plant and is very common in home decoration. Golden Pothos can be called a great master of air purification and also enjoys the reputation of a "green purifier." If your house has just been renovated, you can buy a few pots of Golden Pothos and place them at home, and with some Maya Blue, you can quickly reach the standard for moving in. Place Golden Pothos on a flower stand and let its stems and vines hang down like a green curtain, with a unique charm.
Among small potted plants: Spider Plant
In ancient times, orchids appeared extremely widely in landscape paintings. Spider Plant is one of the very popular indoor hanging plants. The reason Spider Plant is favored by friends is that it not only has a slender and soft appearance, but is also the king of formaldehyde removal among plants. Spider Plant can carry out photosynthesis under weak light and can absorb more than 80% of harmful gases indoors, with an extremely strong ability to absorb formaldehyde.
Creative potted plants
Cement planters are somewhat cold and hard, like a block of iron ingot without expression. But after plants are planted in them, they soften. Although narrow, it is still a home, accommodating this bit of green vitality, and it also becomes very cute.
When using potted plants for indoor decoration, there is no need to stick to ordinary flower pots. Plants can be planted in all kinds of containers. Of course, special attention should be paid to drainage and breathability, and it also depends on the plant variety. For example, for bamboo tube planters, it is best to plant some small succulents with shallow and not very developed roots. In addition to the delicate and small ornamental value, they must also be given appropriate space to grow.
Because living space is constantly shrinking, especially in cities where this living trend still cannot be improved, innovative designs like "skyplanter" will become more and more important.
The tall Norfolk Island pine is suitable for planting in a water glass, bringing a verdant view and looking much more spirited than in an ordinary flower pot. Such a small potted plant looks harmonious placed in any corner.
Planting a slightly shaped Chinese elm in a black wide-mouthed bowl will create a trace of peaceful Zen feeling. Placed in a tea room or study, it adds a sense of tranquility.
Coffee cups are also very good planters. White ceramic paired with soft rabbit's-foot fern (Drynaria quercifolia) is fresh and pleasant, and placed on a desk it will bring a relaxed and good mood.
Combining three plants of different forms in a bowl to make a mini combined potted plant is an excellent choice for decorating a dining room. No matter where it is placed, it is very pleasing to the eye, showing the charm in the bowl.
