Can it be placed in the bedroom?

Let us give an answer first: it is not recommended to keep it indoors. Many people will object, saying that it is so beautiful, does not emit toxic gases, and can even purify the surrounding air, so why can't it be kept in the bedroom?

First of all, although it does not release toxic gases, the plant itself is poisonous. The white liquid it contains may irritate the skin, causing redness, swelling or allergies. In addition, if its stems and leaves are accidentally eaten, it may cause death. Because of its bright colors, it easily attracts children and pets, and it is very easy to eat it by mistake.

In addition, although this plant is a short-day species, it is very light-loving and generally will not grow very well in places with relatively weak light such as bedrooms, so it is best not to place this plant in the bedroom.

In addition, the development and flowering process of this plant requires long-term watering, fertilization, temperature control and other treatments, which are not easy to operate in the bedroom, and sometimes the bedroom will be very messy.

Considering the above reasons, it can be said that this plant is not suitable for placing in the bedroom. However, when we say we do not recommend it, it does not mean that it is completely impossible. If you want to put it in the bedroom, you need to pay attention to some issues.

Precautions

First of all, it is best not to place it in children’s bedrooms to avoid accidental ingestion. In addition, try to place it in a high place where children, cats and dogs cannot reach it. Also, it is best to tell your family and friends about its characteristics to avoid accidental ingestion.
