What kind of flowers are most suitable for home cultivation?

When growing flowers at home, they are generally planted in pots. Due to limited conditions, do not plant too many plants. 10 to 15 pots are appropriate. It is best if the flowers you choose include foliage flowers, flowering flowers, fruit-viewing flowers, fragrant flowers, and ornamental flowers, so that the varieties are rich and diverse.

If you plant flowers at home mainly for decorating your home, you can plant more foliage plants suitable for indoor planting, such as the rubber tree, Schefflera arborvitae, Monstera deliciosa, Spathiphyllum, Areca palm, bamboo palm, miniature coconut palm, Aspidistra, Chlorophytum comosum, Green ivy, Asparagus fern, Clivia, etc. These flowers and trees are shade-tolerant and only need weak light or scattered light to grow normally.

If you plant flowers at home for the purpose of viewing, you can plant more flower-viewing, fruit-viewing, stem-viewing flowers and bonsai, such as rose, camellia, azalea, Milan, jasmine, hibiscus, pomegranate, kumquat, Buddha belly bamboo, lucky bamboo, cycad, five-needle pine, elm stump, banyan stump, etc.

•In winter, foliage plants are the main focus, with some seasonal flowers and rock bonsai. Foliage plants should be evergreen and cold-resistant, such as cycads, bamboo palms, areca palms, rubber trees, rubber trees, spring feathers, spider plants, spider plants, etc. Seasonal flowers include cyclamen, clivia, poinsettia, amaryllis, cineraria, primrose, daffodils, etc.

Other options for home gardening

If you need to purify the indoor air at night, you should choose succulent plants, such as cactus, prickly pear, mountain shadow boxing, Christmas cactus, and swallowtail plant. These plants can absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen at night. They are drought-resistant and evergreen all the year round, but not cold-resistant. As long as they avoid exposure to the sun in summer, keep warm in winter, and keep the soil in the pots dry, they can grow normally.

If the indoor space is small, you can choose small potted flowers and hanging plants, such as asparagus fern, cyclamen, miniature roses, African violets, striped haworthia, lithops, saxifrage, and hanging bamboo plum, which can beautify the home environment without taking up too much space. These plants are relatively easy to maintain.
