What are potted plants? These varieties are worth recommending

Potted plants can be said to be a great helper for beautifying the home. There are many types of potted plants. Today I will recommend several potted plants for everyone.

Large potted plants: Green Giant

Green Giant is commonly known as Green Giant White Palm, belonging to the Araceae family and the Spathiphyllum genus.

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: The Green Giant plant can reach a height of 95 cm, with broad elliptical leaves, entire margins, and leathery texture; the leaf flesh is relatively thick; the leaf color is dark green; slightly covered with white powder, and the petiole can reach 43 cm. The flower form is a spathe 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 about 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 potted plants should be spaced so that leaves just touch. Once pests are found, they can be removed manually or killed with insecticides.

Ornamental value: The Green Giant plant is majestic and impressive, and its gradually changing flower color can bring infinite reverie. It is an ideal potted flower for decorating large halls such as hotels, and it also looks very imposing placed in larger family rooms.

Small potted plants: Pothos

Generally speaking, potted plants under 30 cm are called small potted plants. When it comes to beautifying the home, pothos must be mentioned. Pothos is an all-green vine plant and is very common in home decoration. Pothos can be said to be a major expert at purifying air, and it also enjoys the reputation of being a "green purifier." If your house has just been renovated, you can buy a few pots of pothos and place them at home, and together with some Maya Blue, you can quickly reach the standard for moving in. Place pothos on a flower stand and let its stems and vines hang down like a green curtain, which is uniquely charming.

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 flower vessels are somewhat cold and hard, like a piece of expressionless iron ingot. But after plants are planted in them, they soften. Although narrow and small, it is still a home, accommodating this bit of green vitality, and it also becomes very cute.

When using potted plants for interior 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 flower vessels, it is best to plant some small succulents with shallow and not very developed root systems. In addition to their delicate and small ornamental value, they must also be given appropriate space to grow.

Because living space continues to shrink, especially in cities where this living trend still cannot be improved, innovative designs like "skyplanter" will become increasingly important.

The tall Norfolk Island pine is suitable for planting in a water cup, bringing a fresh green 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. Placed in a tea room or study, it adds a sense of tranquility.

Coffee cups are also very good flower vessels. White ceramic paired with soft rabbit's-foot fern (dragon's-claw fern) is fresh and pleasant, and placing it on a desk 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, presenting the charm of the bowl.
