What bonsai plants are suitable for displaying at home during New Year and Spring Festival

What plants are suitable for the home during Spring Festival? At New Year, buying and growing a few potted seasonal flowers and plants to place in the home both beautifies the environment and adds a joyful festive atmosphere to the holiday. Here are several seasonal flowers suitable for display during Spring Festival.

Cyclamen, commonly known as root begonia, rabbit flower, rabbit ear flower, is a perennial evergreen herbaceous bulbous flower. The word "cyclamen" comes from a transliteration of the scientific name Cyclamen, and because the transliteration is so clever, the flower's name carries the meaning of "immortal guests arriving gracefully." Because of its unusual flower shape, it is a rare ornamental flower in winter, with colors including white, snow blue, pale red, crimson, and rose red. When buying, choose one with abundant flowers and lush leaves. Cyclamen has a strong resistance to the toxic gas sulfur dioxide in the air. Its leaves can absorb sulfur dioxide and, through oxidation, convert it into non-toxic or low-toxicity substances such as sulfate.

Camellia, from New Year's Day to Spring Festival is exactly the season when camellias bloom, with graceful tree form and a riot of colors, possessing high ornamental value. Generally, it is best to choose plants with tender green, glossy leaves. The camellia flower is full and elegant, dignified and refined, one of China's traditional top ten famous flowers and also one of the world's famous flowers.

Narcissus, also known as the fairy of the waves. In the cold winter season when a hundred flowers wither, narcissus can rely on a spoonful of clear water and a few pebbles to take root, sprout, bloom and herald spring, bringing people abundant spring feeling with its slender, graceful posture and refreshing fragrance. It is mostly grown in water; its producing areas are mainly distributed in the warm, humid coastal regions of southeast China, with those from Zhangzhou and Xiamen in Fujian and Chongming Island in Shanghai being the most famous. Every Spring Festival, skilled craftsmen create narcissus bonsai carving art in various forms, and can make them bloom during a predetermined period according to people's wishes, adding much brilliance to New Year, Spring Festival and other holidays.

Poinsettia, also known as Christmas flower, Christmas red, ivory red, etc. In deep winter, when all flowers fade, the poinsettia is dazzling and colorful, and using it to beautify the home fills it with vitality. When buying, generally choose one that is robust and retains 4-5 branches. The flowering period is relatively long, and it can be enjoyed at Christmas, New Year's Day and Spring Festival. In the cold winter, placing a pot of bright red poinsettia at home feels like lighting a warm stove fire. The red parts of the poinsettia that people think are flowers are actually leaves, while the true flowers are the small yellow granular parts in the middle of the leaf cluster. The poinsettia is usually 60 cm to 3 m tall, and its dark green leaves are about 7 to 16 cm long. Its topmost leaves are fiery red, red or white, and are therefore often mistaken for flowers. This is a flower suitable for any blessing. Especially the red and large leaves, with a beaming appearance, seem to be clasping hands in greeting. It is the best flower to represent Christmas and New Year; moreover, in some weddings, red and white poinsettia decorations can also be seen. The flower language of the poinsettia is "my heart is burning," and it can also be used for courtship.

Wintersweet, blooming in the cold, with a cool, delicate fragrance, a long flowering period and beautiful flower posture, is a very good cut flower variety. A branch of leafless yellow flowers placed in a vase is antique and elegant, with a unique charm. Because wintersweet has both color and fragrance and blooms for a long time in winter, it is a winter feature of Jiangnan gardens. It is also suitable as a bonsai for indoor viewing, and is even a top-grade indoor cut flower in winter; it can last an especially long time in a vase, up to dozens of days, and is a precious flower unique to our country.

Geranium, also known as fish geranium, hydrangea, etc. The small flowers cluster together, and the large inflorescence resembles a hydrangea, with colors including pure white, rose red, peach red, bright red, etc. The leaves are large and green, making it an indoor ornamental plant beautiful in both flower and leaf. The flowering period is very long, starting from early winter and lasting until early summer of the following year. It is just right for display at New Year and during Spring Festival.
