Plants in your home
The wide window lets in just the right amount of light for tropical plants.
Water vapor and constant humidity are very beneficial for the development of orchids.
A large Cymbidium orchid thrives in a light beige pot filled with fine gravel, which is moistened with each watering as the water passes almost instantly through the very thin substrate in which the orchids are growing.
In this temperate atmosphere, when the temperature drops slightly at night, orchids bloom for a very long time. Rotate orchid pots from time to time and avoid drafts.
The beautiful areca palm (chrysolidocarpus) gets along well with orchids.
Secret of success
To water orchids, use settled water. This is preferable to indoor plants than tap water.
Spray the leaves of orchids with foliar fertilizer, and add orchid fertilizer diluted with water to the roots. When watering, try not to get into the flower cup.
Worth a try
Chamaedorea elegans
An amazing plant, tenderness and severity are combined in this palm tree, which is very similar to an areca. A bright place, warm soft water, moderate watering in winter, abundant from spring to early autumn.
Useful tips
Keep in mind that warm air rises to the ceiling. If you are growing large plants, spray them several times a day to prevent the leaves from drying out.
The window faces east, and the kitchen is flooded with gentle rays of the morning sun. Plants bathe in them, enjoy them, but do not burn. The window has only one frame, so the coolness of the night easily penetrates into the kitchen, driving away the heat of the day and allowing the asparagus to grow lushly. Two small myrtles grow wonderfully in a beige ceramic pot.
Designer's tip
Use flowerpots or planters for flowers that will harmonize with your interior.
Ceramics should highlight the style of your room.
It is not necessary to use pots of the same color and shape.
Secret of success
Small plants are quickly becoming fashionable, they look great and are easier to care for. The key to success is to ventilate the room frequently as soon as the outside temperature reaches 20°C
In winter, use a hood, or you can also use a fan to refresh the air.
Refined taste of the owners, warm atmosphere of the room, elegance and functionality. Ideal placement of Ficus Benjamin on a pigtail.
The distance between the two columns does not interfere with the leaves and their growth.
The ceiling height is sufficient, light and air humidity, thanks to the presence of a winter garden, are very positive for this plant.
Secret of success
Ficus Benjamin on a pigtail should be purchased as an adult; it will be difficult for you to form such a crown; it will require a lot of time and effort.
Care with sufficient light is not difficult. Do not let the soil dry out completely; the soil should be slightly moist; spray the crown with “Phytohormones and Microelements” fertilizers.
