The secret to growing flowers at home is to provide the flowers with the growth conditions they need. Especially for southern flowers, in the dry climate of the north, it is necessary to create a suitable microclimate for growth, so that they can grow into large and beautiful flowers. The branches are luxuriant and the leaves are luxuriant. Here are some key points for cultivating potted flowers grown at home.
Rhododendron: Rhododendron is one of the representatives of acid-loving plants. It likes a cool, humid and well-ventilated environment. The suitable growth temperature is 13℃ to 25℃, and it should be maintained at 60% to 70% during the growth period. The relative humidity of the air can reach about 80% when blooming. Rhododendron likes light, but avoid direct sunlight. Increase shading appropriately in spring and autumn, reaching about 70% shading in midsummer. Water should be sprayed on the leaves frequently to humidify and cool down. In summer, rhododendrons should be maintained outdoors to facilitate ventilation. . During the growth period, apply thin fertilizer frequently, preferably farmyard manure, and prune after the flowers bloom.
Ruby: A large perennial evergreen vine of the Araceae family. It likes a warm and humid environment, prefers light, and tolerates shade. The suitable temperature for growth is 15-25℃, and the minimum temperature for overwintering is not lower than 5℃. Prefers loose, fertile soil rich in organic matter. It likes plenty of water and fertilizer during the growing season. Put it in a semi-shady place for maintenance, pay attention to watering, but the pot soil should be dry and wet at intervals, and no water should accumulate. During the growing season, it is advisable to apply decomposed cake fertilizer or alum fertilizer once every 10 days. The overwintering temperature should be kept above 5℃.
Emerald: A large perennial vine of the Araceae family. The behavior of emerald is the same as that of ruby. But requires higher temperature and humidity. The suitable growth temperature is 20~30℃, and the overwintering temperature is not lower than 13℃.
Peacock Arrowroot: a perennial evergreen herb of the Arrowroot family. The potting soil can be mixed with leaf mold soil and peat soil in equal parts. Water enough during the growing season to keep the pot soil moist, but too wet pot soil will cause root rot. Apply thin cake fertilizer every 2 weeks. In autumn and winter, it should be exposed to sunlight and shaded for a long time. It should be kept appropriately dry in winter. Leaves that are too wet will turn yellow, burnt brown and fall off.
Bromeliad: a perennial evergreen epiphytic herb of the Bromeliaceae family. It likes a warm, humid and well-lit environment and avoids direct sunlight in summer. The suitable growth temperature is 22~28℃, and the overwintering temperature should be kept above 10℃. It needs to be kept moist during the growth period and spray water on the leaves. It can be dried appropriately in winter. Apply thin cake fertilizer solution to the pot and leaf tube 1 to 2 times a month. In addition to shading in summer, sufficient light should be provided in other seasons.
Brazil wood: an evergreen upright shrub or tree of the Agave family. It likes loose, breathable and well-drained soil and does not like heavy fertilizers. It is advisable to apply thin cake fertilizer and water once a month during the growth period. In soilless cultivation, nutrient solution should be poured once a week. In spring, summer and autumn, about 50% of the light should be shaded, and direct sunlight and wind should be avoided. However, an environment that is too shaded will cause the leaves to fade and lose their patterns. Brazilian wood likes a humid environment, and the pot soil should maintain a certain humidity. Too dry or too wet will affect its normal growth.
Clivia: a perennial evergreen herb of the Amaryllidaceae family. Prefers a warm, humid, cool, semi-shady environment. The suitable temperature for growth is 15-25℃, and the suitable temperature for flowering is 15-20℃. It is relatively cold-tolerant, not tolerant to high temperatures, not tolerant to water and humidity, and has certain drought tolerance. Requires loose, fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic soil.
Milan: Evergreen shrub of the Meliaceae family. It likes a warm, humid and well-lit environment. When the temperature is above 25°C, it grows vigorously, and flower spikes are born in the leaf axils at the top of new branches. Afraid of drought and cold, the overwintering temperature should be kept above 12°C. Requires loose, fertile, slightly acidic soil. During the growth period, water should be alternately dry and wet, and do not water too much. In summer, water needs to be sprayed on the leaves to increase humidity. It is advisable to apply rot cake fertilizer or alum fertilizer once every 2 weeks. After flowering, proper pruning is required to remove dead branches and overly dense branches, and short-cut and topping the central branches to promote a large number of side branches, so as to facilitate the growth of flowers and leaves in the next year. In winter, it needs to be maintained indoors in a sunny place with a temperature above 12℃.
Cyclamen: Cyclamen is a flower that likes light and low temperature. The suitable temperature for growth is 12-20℃. The temperature should not exceed 30℃, otherwise it will be difficult to survive the summer. In order to make the flower buds flourish, they should be given sufficient sunlight during the budding period, placed indoors in a sunny place, and apply phosphate fertilizer every one week. It is best to use 0.3% potassium dihydrogen phosphate compound fertilizer (containing zinc, boron, molybdenum, Manganese, magnesium, copper, iron, sulfur and other medium and trace elements) solution is poured, and the amount per pot is about 150 ml. Usually water once every one or two days to keep the pot soil moist. Do not water heavily. Water only when the pot soil is dry. However, be careful not to overdry the pot soil. Overdrying will damage the root hairs and wilt the upper part of the plant, and it will be difficult to recover even if you pour heavy water. When watering, the water temperature should be close to room temperature.
Poinsettia: Euphorbiaceae. It likes warmth, moisture and sufficient sunshine, and is not strict with the soil, but grows better in slightly acidic (pH 6) fertile sandy loam. It is not cold-tolerant and needs to be put into the greenhouse before frost. The best temperature is 16-18℃. When the temperature is lower than 15℃, the leaves will turn yellow and fall off. In summer, they should avoid direct sunlight. It is a short-day plant. Under the conditions of 18℃～20℃ and 8 hours to 9 hours of light per day, it will bloom in about 50 days. Before and after Qingming Festival, repot the dormant plants and replace them with new culture soil. Topping once to three times during the growth period promotes more branches. Move indoors in early October and keep it at about 20°C, and no less than 15°C at night. Maintain a relatively stable temperature and sufficient sunlight to make the leaves change color and bloom.
Money tree: Newly introduced plants do not need to be repotted that year, and do not apply nitrogen fertilizer to control the excessive growth of young branches and prevent the tree from partial crowning.
The money tree has strong adaptability to water. It will not cause waterlogging or drought, which will cause the leaves to turn yellow, even if it is watered outdoors with heavy water or if it is not watered indoors for more than ten days. Water indoors once every 3 to 5 days in summer, and once every 5 to 10 days in spring and autumn. In winter, it depends on the room temperature, and the pot soil should be slightly damp. If the room temperature is around 12°C, watering once a month is enough. It tolerates both shade and sunshine, and has strong adaptability. If exposed to low light for a long time, the branches will be thin, the petioles will be drooping, and the leaves will be light green. In terms of management, do not change the yin and yang position of the pot. It likes a warm environment and is not cold-tolerant. The adapted growth temperature is 18-30℃. If the newly purchased bonsai plant is growing vigorously but the pot is really too small, you can also repot it in July and August by taking advantage of the plant's semi-dormant state during the high temperature period. Be careful to keep the mother soil intact and water it enough after planting to avoid affecting growth. This tree species has strict requirements on pot soil and prefers acidic sandy loam soil with good drainage and humus.
Kumquat: Keep the pot soil semi-dry and semi-moist, and spray the branches and leaves once every three to five days to keep the leaves clean. In summer, supply sufficient water and spray water once a day in the morning and evening. However, before taking out new shoots, control watering appropriately and apply thin nitrogen-containing alum fertilizer. When the new shoots germinate and grow to about 10 to 15 cm, perform a pinching to promote the branches to become full and mature. After the branches are fully grown, apply phosphorus-containing alum fertilizer and water again to promote the differentiation of flower buds. After flower buds appear between the leaf axils, the flowers should be thinned appropriately, leaving 1 to 2 flowers in each leaf axil. After fruiting, 3 to 4 fruits will remain on the thick branches, and only 1 to 2 fruits will remain on the branches, so that the fruits of the whole plant can be evenly distributed and more nutrients can be maintained. After fruit setting, pay attention to remove the autumn shoots to prevent the second fruiting. After fruiting, the pot soil should always be kept moist to facilitate fruit growth.
Rubber tree: Ficus (Ficus) genus in the Moraceae family. Evergreen trees, rubber trees prefer warm, humid climate conditions. Rubber trees are generally placed indoors in semi-shade and should not receive too much direct sunlight. After arranging the location, be careful not to move it. This is because the rubber tree has a stubborn native nature. However, if it grows too strongly in one direction, you can change the direction appropriately and its growth will be balanced. Temperature fluctuations in the short term are harmful to its growth, and the temperature in winter should not be lower than 12°C. If it is kept at low temperature for a long time, especially if it is watered too much, it will cause death. The amount of watering depends on the temperature. The water demand is larger in spring and summer, and a small amount of water is enough during the dormant period. Keep the pot soil moist and follow the principle of preferring wetness to dryness. Fertilize every 10 days during the growth period, mainly nitrogen fertilizer. Do not fertilize when growth is stopped or during dormant period. Repot every two to three years. The substrate is generally made of pastoral soil and peat soil mixed with a small amount of sand. The soil is slightly acidic. When changing pots, it is combined with pruning to promote the growth of side buds and make the tree shape complete.
Chlorophytum: Chlorophytum of the Liliaceae family. It is a perennial dwarf evergreen herbaceous plant that likes a warm, humid and semi-shady environment. It will not affect the viewing effect if placed in a strong light or dark place. It can grow normally if the temperature in winter is not lower than 7℃.

The more sunshine, the more beautiful the leaves and the richer the flowers. In winter, it should be placed in a place with good light and a temperature above 5°C. In summer, the growing temperature is 20 to 30°C. In summer, pour a moderate amount of water. Water less in winter and fertilize every two weeks during the growing season. Repot every 2 to 3 years. The potting soil is leaf mold soil, crushed clay, and perlite in a 1:1:1 ratio. Pay attention to Feng Shui when growing flowers at home

Friends whose zodiac signs are rabbit, sheep, and pig will have their peach blossoms located due north. Placing plants in this position can improve your luck in love.
Number of Household Plants Feng Shui
Feng Shui advocates reasonable and dense planting.
It believes that when the surrounding area is large and narrow, you should not plant too many trees, otherwise they will provide shade; only if there are open spaces on the left and right behind, you should plant densely to block the space. We agree with this view, but some of the following statements are too superstitious and we can discard them: A single tree is the door, a widowed mother and a grandson, the door is in the forest, sudden diseases are more common, there are two trees in front of the door, livestock injuries If a person heals, there will be no trees on the left and no trees on the right. There will be less good luck and more bad luck. If there are three or five trees on the left, the husband and wife will be in conflict with each other. If the house is sandwiched between two trees, there will be a loss of flesh and blood. The only tree will be flat and beautiful. If the two surnames are not harmonious and the left tree will be in trouble, the financial year will be prosperous.
Feng Shui for the direction of household plants
Plant peach poplar in the east, plum and jujube in the south, elm in the west, auspicious plum in the north, a weeping willow in front of the door is not auspicious, and there is a locust tree in the middle door. , Rich and poor in the third generation, there are elms behind the house, hundreds of ghosts are not close, double jujubes are planted in front of the courtyard, there are green bamboos and trees on the sides to bring wealth, there are mulberry trees in the four corners of the house, and when disaster occurs, it cannot be stopped, etc. From the above conclusions, combined with modern scientific knowledge, we believe that some of the conclusions contain natural science knowledge, and some are a psychological need to seek good luck and avoid disaster. For example, peach and poplar trees are planted in the east because the east welcomes the rising sun first, and willows sprout earlier. Among the plants, peach blossoms are also one of the earliest plants to bloom in spring, so it is reasonable to plant them in the east. Elm trees are moisture-loving plants and are not afraid of the western sun, so it is better to plant them in the west. As for the saying that the locust tree attracts wealth and the elm tree drives away ghosts, it is likely that there are many superstitious elements. Willow trees are not suitable to be planted in front of the main door. This may mean that the willow tree is watery and poplar, so it is difficult to accept it psychologically.
Household Plant Size Feng Shui
It is appropriate to plant large trees in the courtyard. Different schools of Feng Shui have different requirements. The formal school of Feng Shui believes that to block the evil spirits around the house, trees should be arranged in rows. Plant big trees. In order to supplement the needs of the situation, when the house is built on a plain or in a relatively flat and wide area, trees and flowers can be used to create a pattern of four sacred images: green dragon on the left, white tiger on the left, red bird on the front, and Xuanwu on the back. Planting medium trees and planting low shrubs or grasses in front is understandable from an aesthetic point of view, and it meets people's psychological needs for finding Feng Shui treasures. We can incorporate it into the design.
Home Door Plant Feng Shui
What comes into view after entering the house door is the entrance of the whole house. The location of the entrance is also called the Neimingtang in Feng Shui, which symbolizes The future development potential of family members, so the entrance hall is closely related to the family's career and wealth. If a pot of vibrant plants can be placed next to the entrance door or at the entrance hall, it will be conducive to the accumulation of wealth of family members. . It is necessary to replenish water in time after placing it to prevent the plants from withering due to lack of water. This is counterproductive and is not conducive to the accumulation of wealth. Watering should be ensured at least once a week to make wealth flourish. From the perspective of Feng Shui, which is to seek good luck and avoid evil. When placed in a prosperous position, some evergreen plants with thick or large leaves can produce a prosperous effect, such as iron trees, elephant trees, camphor bananas, evergreens, etc. The weak position is suitable for placing thorny plants, such as dragon bones, jade unicorns, and various cacti. These thorny plants, placed in weak or inauspicious positions, have the effect of removing evil spirits in Feng Shui. It can be seen that home plant feng shui plays a very important role in adjusting home luck and financial luck in 20xx. Family Flower Gardening and Feng Shui

In the garden, their shade-loving and shade-tolerant habits can be used to plant them under the forest to form a multi-layered mixed landscape, making it closer to the natural ecology and better maintaining soil and water. It can also be potted or planted directly indoors to improve the indoor environment.
3. Neutral plants (yin in yin, yang in yin) Characteristics: They can grow normally in full sunlight or semi-shade environment. They like light and tolerate shade. They only grow poorly in very shaded environments.
There are many types of these plants. They prefer light less than positive plants, and their growth is inhibited especially during drought and high temperature. They are also far less tolerant of shade than shade plants. They germinate late and fall leaves early under full shade, often causing The leaves of the green trees turn yellow, and the branches and vines tend to grow toward the light and grow skewed during growth. There are also differences in the degree of light-loving and shade-tolerant classifications. There are some that are partial to the sun (Yin in Yang), such as hackberry, beech, cherry blossom, peach, plum, plum, maple, triangle maple, magnolia, magnolia grandiflorum, maple poplar, etc.; Yin (yin in yang) such as fir, spruce, hemlock, oilwood, yew, podocarpus, evodia, four-flower, peach coral, medulla, rhododendron, camellia, hydrangea , Viburnum, Lonicera, ivy, Wujia, Tongtuomu, Pittosporum, Nandina, Euonymus, Pearlberry, Sorbus, etc. There are also some plants that are truly neutral, such as horse chestnut, maple, Chinese pine, whitebark pine, cedar, linden, ash, crabapple, saddle tree, locust tree, etc. If they are exposed to excessive sunlight or shade, they will cause Inhibit growth.
