What are some flowers with long blooming periods that are easy to care for, and what are flower-like lamps called?
As modern people's lives improve, many will place one or two pots of greenery to complement their home decor style, and greenery also has the effect of absorbing harmful substances in the air. Therefore, many flower enthusiasts, when visiting flower markets, tend to prefer varieties that are both attractive and have long blooming periods. Below, we will recommend several "chandelier flowers" that meet the above conditions, all of which are festive flowers with long blooming periods and abundant blooms.
Fuchsia
Fuchsia, also known as lady's eardrops, lantern flower, or hanging bell begonia, has flowers shaped just like its name suggests, each one resembling a tiny hanging bell, very unique, giving a feeling of abundant blooms and vibrant life. Fuchsia produces a large number of flowers; usually a single large flowering plant can produce dozens of brightly colored blooms, and its blooming period is also quite long, with the main flowering times in spring from April to July each year, and in autumn from September to December. Therefore, when fuchsia is in full bloom, people often regard it as a symbol of festivity and good luck, hence the saying that its blooming is an auspicious sign.
Palace Lantern Kalanchoe
The palace lantern kalanchoe is actually a member of the kalanchoe family, but its variety differs from ordinary kalanchoe. Its flower shape is much larger than the common type, and the half-wrapped petals form a star-shaped flower center, and when the flower center fully opens it becomes bell-shaped, with changeable forms, giving an impression of vibrant life, and therefore it is highly ornamental.
Christmas Bells
The Christmas bells, also known as Christmas lily or palace lantern flower, has blooms that overall resemble small palace lanterns after opening, with flowers about the size of a thumb, and the flower color is mostly orange-yellow. However, because the variety is novel, it is considered relatively rare, and ordinary flower shops rarely stock it. Those interested can search online to buy bulbs for planting.
Medinilla
Because of its festive name, it has rapidly become popular in recent years. It belongs to the evergreen small shrub plant of the genus Medinilla in the family Melastomataceae, and is native to the Philippines, Malaysia, the Netherlands, and other places, having been introduced to our country around the year 2000. In terms of overall flower shape, although the plant is not large, its leaves are very broad and upright, so it can be considered a small to medium-sized foliage plant for the living room. After blooming, its flowers are large, with petals similar to lotus petals, wrapped around a spike-like inflorescence inside, and the flower colors are mostly pink and light pink. Placed at home, it can be described as unforgettable in its beauty.
