Add Color and Fragrance to Your Home With House Plants With Flowers
Houseplants that bloom in flower add color and fragrance to any room. Many of these plants will produce their best flowers in summer.
When choosing a new plant, consider its requirements for light. Choose a plant that will thrive in the conditions of your home. Think about a plant that requires indirect light rather than direct sunlight to flourish.
Begonia
Begonias are a bright, easy-to-care flowers and can be used to fill out containers or as a focal point. They are available in a wide range of colors and shapes, including double-flowered types that are suitable for cutting. One popular hybrid, 'Non-Stop Series', has flowers that appear to bloom continuously and is a great option for an in-container "thriller".
The genus (Begoniaceae) includes more than 2,000 species, many with vibrant flowers or leaves. They are native to subtropical and tropical regions. Begonias can be planted in the garden, and based on the climate, they may be perennial or annual.
Both begonias require a little shade and the potting mix should have high organic content. Fertilize the begonias all through the growing season with a slow-release organic fertilizer or granular fertilizer. Apply a light soil topdressing each spring.
Tuberous begonias are the most commonly grown garden variety have large blooms which come in neon-like hues such as pink, red orange and purple. common houseplant come in yellow, red, or white. Single- or double-flowered varieties are available, as are different sizes that range from miniatures to giants. Plant them in borders, beds or as houseplants. Keep them well-watered.
The common wax begonias are more spouting and have fibrous roots. They're better for containers. They come in a variety of colors and are typically mixed with yellow or white streaks on green leaves. One example is the 'Bedding begonia with vivid yellow splotches over bright green leaves.
Both begonias are edible and their petals are an excellent method to make tea that can prevent headaches, fever, and cold symptoms. They contain oxalic acid, which are harmful to people suffering from kidney issues.
Orchid
Orchids are beautiful flowers that last a long time. These plants are low-maintenance and easy to care for, but you should consider the growing conditions to ensure they flourish.
The orchid (Orchis) is, unlike many other flowering plants, is a monocot. This means it only has one cotyledon leaf or embryo. It is famous for its beautiful fragrant flowers, and has long been a prized ornamental plant. It is also used for medicinal purposes and its starchy paste is a well-loved food item in Mexico, where it is used to make candy for the Day of the Dead celebrations.
There are more than 24,000 orchid species, and each color has its own unique symbolism. White orchids are associated with elegance, beauty and purity. Pink orchids represent love and happiness. Purple orchids symbolize the beauty and elegance while yellow orchids symbolize friendship and new beginnings.
The orchid is the strongest flowering plant on Earth and thrives in extreme temperatures and climates. Some believe that the orchid has health benefits. The orchid stems and flowers have been used to treat fever, diabetes and kidney disease.
Many orchid flowers are designed to attract pollinators, which helps them reproduce. The Lady's Slipper orchid, Paphiopedilum has a swollen cavity that is able to trap insects. There is only common house plant to the anthers that deposit pollinia on the insect. This is a typical method of reproduction in orchids, and some rely entirely on this trickery for pollination. Other orchids have more specialized methods of attracting. The labellum of the poke bonnet orchid Cypripedium is shaped to resemble the dove's nest. The labellum is utilized to attract male insects.
Anthurium
The anthurium plant also known as the flamingo lily brings exotic elegance to offices and homes. The stunning heart-shaped leaves and vibrant blooms can brighten up any living space with minimal maintenance requirements. This beautiful tropical plant is an ideal choice for new lovers of plants, as it can thrive with moderate light and water. Anthuriums aren't just attractive and require minimal care, but they also have many intriguing benefits.
According to research conducted by NASA, anthuriums are capable of removing harmful pollutants from the air. This includes common toxins such as ammonia, formaldehyde and xylene and toluene. These harmful chemicals are typically released from wall paints, rubber, wood furniture and even from the exhaust of vehicles. Inhaling these toxic chemicals can cause respiratory problems. However, anthuriums can help eliminate these toxins by absorbing the toxins through their leaves.
Anthuriums can also improve your mental function and concentration by enhancing blood circulation and decreasing stress levels. They have medicinal properties that can be used to treat muscle aches.
If you're planning to grow anthuriums, make sure you give them plenty of indirect sun. They are not tolerant of direct sunlight because it can cause bleaching of the color of their leaves. Make sure to mist your plants on a regular schedule. Anthurium fertilizer that is high in phosphorus levels can be added to soil to promote healthy growth. Also, make sure to place your anthurium into a large enough pot so that it doesn't get root-bound. Overcrowded low light houseplants will stunt the growth of the plant and could hinder it from flowering.
Crown of Thorns
Crown of thorns is an annual flowering plant that is part of the succulent family, and it thrives in dry and bright conditions. It blooms all year round if it is in right conditions. Its dense, fleshy foliage helps to store water and alert you when it's thirsty. This makes it a great houseplant for people who forget to water their plants on a regular basis. It is also easy to propagate since it produces long peduncles which can be cut and put in various containers.
It's essential to select a soil mix that drains quickly for this plant, as excessive moisture can lead to root rot. Crown of thorns can also be susceptible to pests such as mealybugs, spider mites, and you'll need to get rid of any infestations as soon as you notice them. It's also an excellent air purifying plant, which can eliminate harmful gases such as formaldehyde and benzene out of indoor areas.
When you are growing Crown of Thorns, it's best to place it in a sunny location since it requires direct sunlight to generate the energy it needs to photosynthesise. It can tolerate a amount of shade however it won't grow as fast in these conditions. It is easy to water this plant but you should be aware that it doesn't like abrupt temperature fluctuations. If it is hit by shock, it might cease producing flowers until it adjusts to the new environment.
Repotting is only necessary when the plant is outgrowing its container or when the soil is becoming compacted. Repotting is accomplished by cautiously taking out as much soil as you can without damaging the roots. Then fill the new pot with fast draining soil. Crown of thorns isn't very demanding when it comes to feeding, but you should feed it a diluted balance fertilizer every two weeks throughout the growing season (spring to summer). In winter, you can cut the frequency to once a month since it won't require as much energy.
Kalanchoe
Kalanchoe plants aren't as fussy as some houseplants, but they need a good home. They do well in temperatures of 55 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit, however they don't require much humidity. The only exception is when the plants are planted in pots or gardens. They must be protected from frost if they are in more colder climates.
Many varieties of kalanchoe can produce flowers that last up to eight weeks. They require little maintenance and are readily available in supermarkets, garden centers and florists. They are easy to grow and can often be encouraged blooming again after they've finished blooming. This is particularly true if you own an hybrid like calandiva, or K. Blossfeldiana that has longer-lasting double flowers.
If you wish to encourage a kalanchoe to bloom again, place the plant in a sunny area with moderate sun. Harsh direct sunlight can inhibit bud development, and it's important to take away the flowers that have been squandered throughout the summer. The addition of a fertilizer rich in phosphorus can prompt continual flowering in the future.
You can propagate kalanchoe by cutting three-inch slices from the tips of branches of types. Then, root the cuttings into a moist potter's mix, like peat and vermiculite in equal portions. You can add horticultural grit to help with drainage. Many kalanchoe species reproduce viviparously, which means they grow bulbs or wee plants on the edges of their leaves.
low light houseplants can let them fall and become roots in the soil where they land or gently move them to a different location and grow new kalanchoes. Kalanchoe is one of the easiest succulents from which to propagate cuttings.
