How to Choose Indoor Flowers? A Detailed Guide to Selection Principles and Application Forms

Many people nowadays place flowers and plants indoors, which can purify indoor air, reduce indoor dust, clean the air, and increase negative oxygen ions, as well as help prevent colds, typhoid, laryngitis, and other illnesses (such as begonia, asparagus fern, and asparagus). Of course, flowers and plants should not be placed at random, so today we will discuss the selection principles and application forms for indoor flowers and plants.

I. Selection Principles for Indoor Flowers and Plants

1. Choose flowers according to room size

For relatively spacious rooms, it is suitable to choose large foliage plants with big leaves and bright colors, giving a magnificent and generous feel; for smaller rooms, it is better to choose flowers with smaller forms, so there is a sense of proportion appropriate to the space.

2. Choose flowers according to placement location

The size of the plants chosen for indoor flower arrangements is also related to the placement location. For flowers placed on the floor at a wall corner or beside a sofa, it is suitable to choose medium-to-large plants such as rubber tree and lucky bamboo; for flowers placed on plant stands, windowsills, or furniture, it is suitable to choose small-to-medium flowers such as orchids, wax begonias, and African violets; for flowers placed on coffee tables, desks, or combination cabinets, it is suitable to choose plants with small forms in small pots, such as asparagus fern and string of pearls.

3. Choose plants according to specific needs

If the house has been newly renovated not long ago, harmful substances may still remain indoors, so aloe or chrysanthemums can be chosen to eliminate or reduce the harm of benzene; choose daisies or lucky bamboo to eliminate trichloroethylene pollution in the room; choose Chinese rose or rose to reduce the harm of hydrogen sulfide, etc.

II. Application Forms of Indoor Flowers and Plants

The main function of the bedroom is sleep and rest, and the application form of flowers is mostly placement, so the flowers chosen are preferably small and light green.
