Which red flower varieties look good placed in the living room during Spring Festival?

Stepping into January, the Spring Festival atmosphere on the streets grows stronger and stronger, and many families begin preparing decorations for the New Year, such as spring couplets, red envelopes, new shoes, new clothes, and so on. In this season full of laughter and joy, many also place a few pots of bright red flowers. Let's take a look at the festive flowers suitable for placing during Spring Festival.

Phalaenopsis

Phalaenopsis (moth orchid) comes in a wide variety of flower colors, and once the blooms open they look like butterflies dancing gracefully, both lively and festive. During the New Year period, flower shops generally display flowers with bright red colors, and red phalaenopsis symbolizes prosperity and a happy marriage, making it very suitable to keep at home during New Year's Day and Spring Festival.

Key care points after buying it back: do not repot or change the soil for the phalaenopsis right away, because its root system is very sensitive when moved to a new environment at this time. If you think the pot is not attractive, you can simply slip a prettier pot over the outside. During the flowering period, watering should depend on the soil condition; just follow the principle of letting it dry before watering and watering thoroughly.

Begonia

Begonia is a flower that looks very spectacular once it blooms. Common colors include red, orange, yellow, and pink. It symbolizes good fortune, prosperity, and other good blessings.

Key care points after buying it back: you can put it in the sun to bask. For the first 3 days after purchase, first observe its condition and do not water too much, and there is even less need to fertilize. It will roughly bloom in January, and the flowering period will continue until April of next year.

Clivia

Clivia is known as the flower of wealth, and its symbolism is good fortune, prosperity, and happiness. After it blooms, the flower shape is large and beautiful, usually showing a bright red color, especially festive.

Key care points after buying it back: place it mostly in a sunny spot, and it is recommended to give it more than 4 hours of sunlight per day for the first week. As for watering, the flower shop owner will generally have watered it already, so give an appropriate amount of water according to its condition. For later care, follow the principle of keeping the soil slightly moist, avoiding waterlogging. Especially in winter, reduce the watering frequency. The most suitable growing temperature is around 15~25 degrees. In addition, because Clivia has fleshy roots, during the growing season appropriately apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to prolong the bloom.
