At the moment, you can find a lot of decorative varieties of indoor flowers that differ in shape, size or color. In this review, we will learn how to choose them, consider the most attractive room options that can be found in the online store and not only.

A few words about them

All that are, domesticated varieties can be attributed to the evergreen representatives of the flora. These beauties are actively used in ornamental gardening, not only serving as an important part of modern interiors, but also having a beneficial effect on the microclimate. All rooms are conditionally divided:

1. those that delight the eye with their blooming buds;
2. just with beautiful leaves, but without bright inflorescences.

Naturally, those representatives of the flora that never cease to delight others with flowering have become the most beloved.

By 2022, they are usually divided according to the following characteristics.

1. Decorative flowering - a large subgroup. It also includes exotic options brought from other countries, but adapted to our latitudes. As a rule, they are distinguished not only by their appearance, but also by the flowering period and aroma.
2. Potted. They can grow both in a dwelling and in a flower bed. Such flowers are used "as needed", that is, most often they can be found in the composition.
3. Decorative leafy. These include ferns, palm trees, climbing plants. The main difference between the subgroup is the complete absence of buds.

In a separate class allocate

1. cacti and succulents - this category includes representatives of a non-standard appearance, often completely without leaves or branches in the usual sense.
2. decorative fruit - represent a small group of small plantations intended for growing in the house.

There is another way to divide green friends - according to growing conditions.

1. moisture-loving;
2. drought resistant;
3. thermophilic;
4. Cold resistant;
5. Those who love to be in the light;
6. Shade-loving.

Content Nuances

Their place in the house

According to buyers, representatives of the flora will please the eye longer if they are properly cared for, as well as protected from parasites. Therefore, before settling a new flower in your home, it would be useful to read the reviews of experienced growers. First of all, room options need light. Therefore, the window is considered the best place to place them. But not every representative of the green world will be happy with direct sunlight from the south side. For example, categories with bright petals need ample light, while their counterparts with leathery foliage are less demanding. Based on what, preference is given to the east or west side. Equally important is the design of the windows themselves. In modern dwellings, radiators are usually installed under the windowsill, which makes them not only bright, but also dry and warm. Nevertheless, window stands, even those made of natural materials, are the most unfavorable places. In this case, the flowerpots must be regularly kept in a waterproof pan to avoid the appearance of wet circles. Such climatic differences are not suitable for everyone, so you need to monitor the atmosphere in the room.

Features of humidity and temperature

Speaking of such an important event as watering flowering beauties, the first thing you should pay attention to is that not all green pets take it the same way. For example, dry-tolerant aloe or cactus do not need intensive watering. But inflorescences with large, abundantly moisture-giving leaves, on the contrary, will be happy with good irrigation.Representatives such as Calla will grow well, even if you lower it directly into the liquid.

Water for irrigation should be moderately warm and soft (rain or river). Artificially heated liquid is not suitable for this, the method often causes such a disadvantage as the rapid development of a seedling. In the atmosphere of a city apartment, it is recommended to withstand moisture for three days. If, nevertheless, watering was plentiful, then excess water exits through the drainage system. Such residues must be removed. Significantly simplify the event, the use of hydroculture. In this case, the action can be carried out directly through the pebbles, while the flowerpots themselves will not constantly be in contact with moisture, and the rhizomes can easily get the water they need. This will increase the humidity in the room. But temperature preferences, according to external data, are no longer so easy to accurately determine. This applies even to species from the same family, since all "green" are very individual. In general, one can distinguish the most comfortable temperature up to +18 +20° in winter and almost +22 +24° in summer. As a rule, the mode can fluctuate depending on the species.

Tips for beginners

• Before buying a new window occupant, inquire about their temperature and light preferences. For each individual species, tuck small clues on a plastic plate.
• You should not feed your pet while it is at rest, recently acquired or dived, as well as bringing it into overdried soil.
• If you have to use air conditioning, you need to remember that the technique dries the air very much, and your pets will need regular spraying.
• The room with green pets should be ventilated frequently, however, it is important to avoid getting a direct stream of cold air on them, this can lead to the death of the latter. Well, in the summer, you can even move it to a balcony or terrace.
• Dive is best done only when necessary, that is, when the root system completely fills the entire container.
• Green pet hygiene involves the removal of withered stems and leaves. This procedure, although it seems quite ordinary, is of great importance, since most often it is there that pathogenic bacteria appear. It is better to cut off the damaged foliage at the junction of the cutting and the stem.
• The best picking seasons for indoor plantings are spring or early summer. But less demanding specimens perceive the transplant well even during the year.

Popular models of flower pots

As for the criteria for choosing a container where green pets will grow, the requirements are approximately the same. The main thing is the comfortable well-being of the latter, while the materials can be very different:

• Baked clay - this material is quite stable, creating the most comfortable conditions for the rhizome. And covered with glaze, it also looks very beautiful. However, for the price, such forms are by no means a cheap pleasure.
• Wood - these containers are very unusual, they create favorable conditions for the growth of roots, but such pots are short-lived and expensive.

• Plastic - they no longer look so elegant, are light in weight and can be knocked over jokingly, such pots quickly become unusable, but create a favorable atmosphere for the development of the root system.
• Metal products are not suitable for cultivation at all, because they instantly heat up or supercool, and their cost and durability leave much to be desired.

Therefore, preference is given to products made from natural materials. The shape of the container is also important - a truncated cone or pyramid is considered the best model. The volume of the container must match the width of the growth of the root system. It is important to choose pots of 0.5-1.5 liters and it is best with a pallet of the same composition.
