Home beauty pictures often showcase the magic of a green-plant abode, radiating vitality and energy. Decorating with green plants can breathe new life into your home!
Following are 6 good-looking and practical green plants that every home decorator should consider.
1. Monstera deliciosa: This tropical plant has a literary appearance. It can eliminate formaldehyde and absorb more than 80% of harmful gases in the room. Its juvenile leaves are heart-shaped and not split, but once mature, they spread out and create a rainforest-like illusion.
It's best to tie it up and fix it when it first starts to grow, or it will easily grow apart. The dark green color tone pairs well with log furniture.
2. Ficus Lyrata: This broad-leaved plant has thick leaves and can grow very tall. Its leaves resemble a fiddle, hence its name Ficus Lyrata. The perfect match for this plant is a rattan basket, but don't put the soil directly in the basket - use a pot inside.
It can be used in the living room, office, or courtyard and loves sunlight and water. When choosing a Ficus Lyrata, try to pick one with a larger trunk and leaves at the top for easier care.
3. Eucalyptus: This plant is food for wombats. Freshly cut eucalyptus leaves come in two varieties - common eucalyptus leaves and imported eucalyptus leaves - both of which are very beautiful.
Eucalyptus has a fresh atmosphere that can help with respiratory and immune system conditioning as well as refreshing the mind. It's recommended for use in the living room or study.
4. Hylocereus Undatus: Hylocereus undatus cactus likes warmth and prefers semi-shade. In direct strong sunlight, its plant yellows and is sensitive to low temperatures below 5°C, causing stem joints to rot easily.
This plant is super textured when paired with a cement pot or woven grass pot. Despite its rough appearance, it blooms from May to September with large white fragrant flowers.
5. Chrysalidocarpus Lutescens: This plant has dense evergreen leaves that are suitable for garden culture or indoor ornamental potting. Its pinnately compound leaves grow symmetrically, forming a crisscross effect that is very design-oriented.
6. Epipremnum aureum: This common home-furnishing green plant can be potted, inserted in water, or hung in a variety of sizes. Small plants can be placed on desktops while large green plants can be used as the main plant in the living room along with ficus leaf ficus or Scindapsus.
