Would you like to have a green home? If so, you should know that there are many plants that you can have indoors: flower, without flower, with decorative leaves, climbing plants, trees ... There is so much variety that sometimes it is very difficult not to buy more plants than we had thought. However, not all of them adapt equally to the conditions of the home, so it is very common to take a precious one home but over time it wilts because it has not been able to acclimatize.
So that this does not happen to you, here is a list with the best 6 hardy houseplants that will decorate your home for a long, long time.
clivia
Clivia is a beautiful bulbous plant. Once it sprouts, its leaves are kept throughout the year. It blooms during the summer to early fall, and is one of the few plants of its kind that does well indoors. Doesn't need a lot of light (In fact, if you put it in an area where direct sun hits it, it would burn), nor too much humidity.
Ficus benjamina
This is a small tree ideal for bright rooms or interior patios. The little brother of the Ficus is very grateful, so much so that you will only have to water it between 2 and 3 times a week (somewhat less if it is winter) and enjoy its beauty.
Chamaedorea elegans
The Palmera de Salón is, among all the palm trees, the most recommended to have indoors. With a height of no more than 3m, it can always keep in pot in a very bright corner (in dimly lit rooms you may have problems).
Calathea
Calathea are plants whose leaves are very ornamental. Although they are somewhat more delicate than all the plants that we have seen so far, the truth is that with a little care they will look beautiful. You only have to put them in a bright room and water them little, about 2 times a week.
Cactus and succulents
Cacti and succulents are plants that love the sun and high temperatures, but why not also have them indoors? Put them in bright corners and you'll see how well they look. Water them very little, once a week, and surely they will not take long to flower.
Epipremnum aureum (Potohos)
This climber has been used for centuries as an indoor plant, and it adapts like few to the conditions and cultivation inside the home. You can have it both in a very bright room and in another with a little less light, and it will grow wonderfully. In addition, it is not demanding in terms of type of substrate, and as if that were not enough withstands drought. Interesting, right?
What do you think of these resistant indoor plants? Do you know others?
THE FERNS ALSO THRIVE CUTE HANGED AND WITH INDIRECT SUN,
Hello Miriam.
Yes that's how it is. There are some species, such as those in the genus Nephrolepsis, that do very well in hanging pots.
Greetings 🙂.
