Crown of Thorns

Crown of Thorns, also called Christ thorn, originates from the desert regions of Africa. After blooming, its flowers are small and exquisite; in terms of flower color, it mostly has bright red bracts and small yellow flowers, like gems inlaid among green leaves, very distinctive.

In terms of care, you should give it "tough love": don't water it too much, wait until the potting soil is completely dry before watering. It is suitable for placement in a bright spot indoors with scattered light, such as a windowsill or beside a desk, so it can get the light it needs. At the same time, for fertilizing, supplementing once a month with a fertilizer high in phosphorus can keep it blooming continuously all year round.

Desert Rose

The specialty of Desert Rose is that after blooming, its flowers are trumpet-shaped, and near the base there is something like an inflated big belly, especially interesting. Its flowering period is usually around April to May, so buying one from the flower market to take home now is most suitable.

In terms of care, its place of origin is the regions near deserts, and it likes dry soil and hates water accumulating in the pot, so it is recommended to use a small flowerpot, with soil particles making up 50% to 70% being most suitable. During normal care, also water it sparingly, and supplement once a month with a fertilizer high in phosphorus and without lacking other elements. Place it in ample sunlight, and the Desert Rose can continue to bloom beautifully at home.

Ball Cactus


As a member of the cactus family, the Ball Cactus at first glance is characterized by being covered all over with sharp spines, and these spines are not only its iconic appearance but also its survival strategy for adapting to arid environments and preventing water evaporation and animals from gnawing on it.

In terms of care, it can be considered a genuine lazy person's flower. You must water it only a little, a little, otherwise it easily rots at the roots and rots the ball. For fertilizing, also apply it thinly, otherwise it easily causes the ball body to crack. For soil, it is recommended to choose coarser river sand, with a proportion that can account for more than 50% of the soil (it cannot be grown with pure sand alone); for the soil mix, you can use leaf mold mixed in for planting.
