Photos of indoor flowers that should not be kept at home

For some reason, many people believe that indoor plants are harmless and simply decorate their living rooms. However, there are a number of scientific reasons that claim that not all plants can be kept at home. There are also folk beliefs associated with the energy of flowers.

Some plants emit or contain dangerous allergens and toxic substances. These are some types of ferns, aglaonema, euphorbia, oleander, monstera, alocasia, some ficus, anthurium, clivia, croton, poinsettia, rhododendron, cyclamen, lilies.

The plant needs additional lighting and warmth, but it is better to cover heating devices, if they are nearby.

Indoor lemon

Figs

In the house it begins to bear fruit in the first year. They care for figs just like lemons, but remember that the tree sheds its leaves at the end of October. A rest period is required; it is tedious to move the figs to a cool place and shade them with a dark cloth. It is good to lower the tree into the basement and water it as little as possible. After a while, the plant will begin to develop new buds, which means it’s time to return the figs to the bright windowsill.

Indoor plants are not only a decoration for any home, but also the most effective air purifier, a kind of “dust collector”. After all, any home accumulates many different toxic substances that are dangerous to our health. And indoor plants, in the best possible way, clean the room, collecting dust, toxic fumes and smoke.

They delight us not only with their aesthetic beauty, they are extremely useful.

Based on the experience of florists and plant breeders, we have compiled the TOP 15 best plants in terms of beauty and effect on our body.

Chlorophytum

This plant absorbs carbon monoxide and many other toxic substances from the air. It ranks first in eliminating formaldehyde from the environment and producing oxygen. An original flowerpot or an unusual support on which you can place a flowerpot will help add elegance and beauty to chlorophytum.

Ficus benjamina

Ficus benjamina is one of the best air purifiers after chlorophytum. The plant absorbs dust and toxic substances that evaporate from furniture and plastic objects. The plant is interesting because as it grows, its roots take on different configurations.

Spathiphyllum

Another beautiful and useful plant is spathiphyllum. Its flowers are often called “bedspread”. It absorbs mold spores from the air and also cleans the air well of toxic substances such as formaldehyde and trichlorethylene.

Geranium (pelargonium)

Despite the fact that geranium is a little dangerous for allergy sufferers, it has many beneficial properties. In particular, geranium purifies the air from bacteria and poisonous microbes. The essential oils in its composition have a beneficial effect on the human body. This plant helps improve sleep and calms the nervous system.

Noble laurel

Unlike our homes, laurel can be found everywhere in European homes. This plant is simply a storehouse of useful substances and qualities. Purifies oxygen from various harmful substances and dust, helps overcome various ailments. This is a truly unique plant in its healing and cleansing qualities.

Begonia

Begonia is also worth getting! Not only is it beautiful, but this plant also attracts dust, eliminates fungal organisms, and also humidifies the air. Just remember to spray the plant with a spray bottle so that a new portion of dust is absorbed by the plant. Begonia also absorbs radiation from electrical appliances.

Dieffenbachia

People who suffer from lung diseases should definitely get Dieffenbachia. It eliminates staphylococcus, and also eliminates toxic substances that emit paintwork.

Aloe

Aloe is one of the most popular and widespread indoor plants and probably everyone has it in their home. This plant is very useful - it “kills” formaldehyde, which evaporates from the surface of furniture! Aloe is also a very effective medicine. Plant phytoncides relieve physical stress and improve brain activity.

Dracaena

Dracaena is also a wonderful oxygen purifier. It draws in all harmful substances from the air that enter the house with exhaust gases.

Scheffler

This plant of the Araliaceae family is very beautiful. In order to grow schefflera with a bright yellow-green color, you need a lot of diffused color. The plant is a must for heavy smokers - Schefflera perfectly disinfects the air from tar and nicotine.

Hedera

The plant perfectly fights harmful chemical elements. Hedera eliminates any volatile fumes. The main advantage of this culture is that even the smallest plant in terms of oxygen production can replace several cacti, since it has a high rate of photosynthesis.

Ivy

Ivy destroys aerobic fecal particles that are sprayed into the air every time the toilet is cleaned.

For good growth, the plant needs constantly moist soil and sunlight.

Ficus

This plant enriches the air with natural minerals and salt compounds. Ficus also produces a lot of oxygen, so it is an ideal “inhabitant” of bedrooms and living rooms. In addition, the plant has an energetic effect, favorably affecting the home atmosphere.

Gerber Jameson

The plant disinfects the air from benzene and trichlorethylene, which is formed during dry cleaning.

It should be noted that gerbera is a rather fastidious plant and does not tolerate excess moisture. It needs a lot of direct sunlight - at least 6 hours a day.

Sims' rhododendron

This plant is both beautiful and helps fight formaldehyde, and also humidifies the air in the room.
