What plants and flowers bring prosperity and wealth to a home? Here's how to choose

Many friends have the habit of inviting relatives or colleagues over on weekends to play mahjong, so what plants can you keep at home to bring luck to the host? This article talks about the prosperity-bringing plants that can let you win against three other players at the mahjong table.

Coral Ardisia

There has long been a folk saying that "seeing red flowers indoors nourishes people and prospers the home." Coral Ardisia (Ardisia crenata) is an evergreen small shrub, also known as Ardisia crenata, and "gold and jade filling the hall." Its flowers are white or pale green, its leaves are elliptical or lanceolate, and the fruit it produces is bright red, with the berries staying on the plant for a long time. Keeping it at home carries very good meaning, with connotations of many children and much fortune, festivity and good luck, family happiness, health, peace, and rolling wealth. At the same time, it also has effects in treating colds, coughs, asthma, and more. Care advice: Coral Ardisia likes slightly acidic soil. When repotting and changing the soil, you can use a well-mixed soil of humus soil, pond mud, garden soil, coarse sand, coconut coir, and so on. For fertilizing, mainly use nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilizers. To promote flowering and make the fruit color more vivid, you can also use monopotassium phosphate.

Amaryllis

Amaryllis is a plant that is a beloved purchase for the New Year season. Its shape resembles a pillar, round and thick and strong, and the flowers bloom at the top of the pillar, with two pairs of flowers opening at the same time, facing each other in four directions, so it is also called "cannon firing in four directions." Its meaning is to triumph in all directions, with the connotations of great fortune, destined to be red, and full of joy. Care advice: It is relatively drought-tolerant, so absolutely do not water it too much, otherwise the roots easily rot. It likes a warm environment. In winter, if you want it to bloom, the temperature needs to reach above 18°C, and sunlight must also be sufficient.

Camellia

Camellia is praised as the honored guest among flowers. Its blooms are gorgeous and colorful, giving people a kind of peony-like elegance and nobility, and after blooming it also carries a rich fragrance. Keeping it indoors carries very good meaning, with connotations of good luck and beauty, gentleness and elegance, grace and nobility, and modesty and courtesy. Keeping it at home is very auspicious; it can increase indoor oxygen levels and can also absorb harmful substances in the air, such as formaldehyde and benzene.
In addition, camellia flowers can also be used in cooking, made into soup, or brewed as tea, because camellia has effects such as clearing heat and detoxifying, and cooling blood and stopping bleeding. Care advice: It is suitable for keeping indoors, because it does not like strong sunlight and likes a moist environment. When the air is dry, you can water it with slightly acidic water, and also spray water on its leaves, otherwise the leaves easily dry out.
