[Home Aquatic Plants] Arranging home aquatic plants

There are many kinds of plants, and one of them is indoor aquatic plants. So what home aquatic plants are there? How should indoor plants be arranged? Today I will give you a brief introduction, let us take a look together.

What home aquatic plants are there

1. Lysimachia nummularia (moneywort)

It is not strict about water quality and can be cultivated in soft fresh water. Lysimachia nummularia likes a environment with plenty of light; in a shaded environment the leaves rot easily, so it is best to let it receive more than 4 hours of scattered sunlight every day. Lysimachia nummularia has the function of purifying the air, is a very good aquatic plant to place indoors, is not very demanding about sunlight, and also has a very high survival rate.

2. Ceratophyllum demersum (hornwort)

Ceratophyllum demersum is an aquatic plant that mainly grows in ponds and ditches, but now we plant it more in fish tanks or fish ponds. Ceratophyllum demersum belongs to the algae plants, a kind of herbaceous plant suspended in the water. It has a certain medicinal value. Ceratophyllum demersum is a very good plant indoors for decorating fish tanks, and both its ornamental value and medicinal value are very high.

3. Echinopsis (cactus ball)

Echinopsis has particularly strong drought tolerance. When we grow Echinopsis, we all use the most traditional cultivation method. But this soil cultivation method has many disadvantages: it has more dirt, and it is also not easy to manage. So now indoor aquatic cultivation of Echinopsis is used. Echinopsis also blooms, so its ornamental value when placed indoors is still very high.

4. Cyperus alternifolius (umbrella papyrus)

Cyperus alternifolius likes warmth and humidity, and likes to grow in water, hence the name water bamboo. Bamboo is widely used and of great value; the whole plant can be used in different fields and has multiple values such as ornamental and medicinal. Bamboo shoots are delicious, and the bamboo stem is slender and can be used to weave tools and artworks; after burning, bamboo oil and bamboo charcoal can also be used to make incense and for burning. Because Cyperus alternifolius is easy to manage and keep, it can be grown in soil in flowerpots or in water in a water-holding container; both water cultivation and pot cultivation are possible.

Arranging home aquatic plants

1. Broadleaf plants on the balcony boost career

In feng shui, the balcony mainly affects the homeowner's career prospects, and it is the place closest to the outdoors in the home, so it can fully absorb the sunlight, wind and rain outside the home and is suitable for growing all kinds of evergreen plants. It can not only beautify the environment, but also achieve a prosperity-boosting effect in feng shui. Generally, prosperity-boosting plants include Rohdea japonica (lily of China), Pachira aquatica (money tree), Rhapis excelsa (broadleaf lady palm), and so on.

2. Aquatic plants at the entryway attract the most wealth

In home feng shui, aquatic plants are a good prop for attracting wealth, taking the symbolic meaning of prospering upon meeting water. The entryway is the entrance and exit of a house and is also called the inner bright hall in feng shui, so the feng shui of the entryway is inseparably related to the family's career fortune. If a pot of aquatic plants can be placed outside the front door or at the entryway, it is helpful for gathering wealth. Of course, after placing them, do not forget to water them regularly to prevent the plants from withering due to lack of water. But do not, just for convenience, put a fake tree at the door or place fake flowers inside the door, because this not only fails to bring good feng shui, but also attracts bad feng shui.

3. Thorny plants best neutralize negative energy

In home feng shui, plants that neutralize negative energy are different from prosperity-boosting plants. Plants that neutralize negative energy generally have thorns on their stems or flowers and leaves, because only with thorns can they dissolve negative energy, such as cactus, rose, rhododendron, and so on. Plants that neutralize negative energy are generally suitable for placing on windowsills, balconies and similar places, and are not suitable for placing in the living room or bedroom, as they will affect family relationships and marital affection.
