The impact of Epiphyllum on interior decoration

Ornamental value

Epiphyllum has beautiful leaves and flowers. It blooms in summer and autumn. The white flowers are graceful and fragrant, very elegant. It is a beautiful flowering plant that can be used as a potted plant to decorate guest rooms, balconies and reception halls. In the south, it can be planted in the open field or used to make flower stands. During the flowering period, the night-blooming cereus looks like a large piece of flying snow, which is very spectacular.

Feng Shui Application

The five elements of Epiphyllum are gold in water. If you place Epiphyllum on a balcony, it is best to choose a south-facing balcony where there is sunlight and air is unobstructed. You can also combine it with plants belonging to the fire and wood elements to organize a plant aura, which can improve the personality problems of some people in the family.

Plants of the cactus family can ward off evil spirits. Placing them on the window can dispel external evil spirits.

Purification

Green plants generally release oxygen during the day and exhale carbon dioxide at night. But the opposite is true for Epiphyllum. It closes the stomata on the back of its leaves during the day, and only opens them at night when the temperature drops, expelling oxygen and absorbing carbon dioxide. Therefore, it is a plant that inhales carbon dioxide and releases oxygen at night. It can absorb the carbon dioxide exhaled by humans and release the oxygen needed by humans, creating a win-win situation for humans.

Epiphyllum can increase the negative ion content in the room. When it blooms, it releases negative ions, making the indoor air fresh and pleasant. The air in the room will be healthy only when there are enough negative ions. When the negative ion content decreases, people will feel suffocated and breathless. Therefore, Epiphyllum, which has this effect, has many benefits.
