Indoor plants can revitalize and make any room cozy. They soothe, lift the mood, and some plants are even capable of ionizing and purifying the air. In any apartment and in any office, green corners (and not randomly placed pots of plants) look gorgeous. To better arrange a green corner in your apartment, use a few recommendations.
Instructions
Step 1
Decide in which part of the apartment the green corner will be located. Plants do not like to be frequently moved from place to place. Consider things like having enough light and no drafts.
Step 2
Determine which plants will prevail in your green space and make sure that they do not have nutritional problems. Purchase fertilizers in advance to promote plant growth and flowering. Remember that plants need special - soft and settled - water for irrigation.
Step 3
Choose flowering plants according to your own desires. For example, if you want to enjoy flowers in winter, choose spathiphyllum, zucharis or ripsalidopsis. For summer bloom, buy fuchsia, campanula, and so on. Deciduous plants differ from each other in color and leaf size. When buying, check to what size the plant grows and how often it blooms.
Step 4
Consider the size of the plant leaves and place plants and flowers wisely when setting up a green area. It is likely that a plant with large leaves can hide a photophilous flower from the sun, or, conversely, protect a plant from too bright light that does not benefit from an excess of light.
Step 5
Plants themselves are a luxurious decoration, but what they grow in also plays an important role. Aesthetically and stylishly decorated flower boxes and attractive flower pots should fit into the overall style of your interior so as not to cause disharmony with their diversity. Choose different sized pots in the same style or in the same color scheme, give preference to natural natural colors and materials. You can complement the green corner with decorative stones and small sculptural figures.
Step 6
When buying, it is better to choose young and strong plants - they tolerate stress better. And the plant will certainly have stress, because when "moving" from the store to your apartment, it will have to adapt to new conditions: room temperature, humidity, degree of lighting. Do not buy plants that are in the aisles in the shops in drafts, assess the condition of other plants in the windows, the presence of pests, the degree of soil moisture.
