What flowers are best to place in the bedroom
This article summarizes the best flowers to place in the bedroom and recommends five types of green plants suitable for the bedroom, along with some small experiences in green plant care. Detailed introduction is provided below.
In spring, everywhere is vibrant and filled with enchanting floral scents. Some floral scents, upon entering our olfactory nerves, produce a series of organic compounds that make us feel comfortable physically and mentally. Moreover, some floral scents have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and disinfectant effects. Placing them in the bedroom not only improves the indoor air quality but also relaxes the body and mind, easing stress and promoting sleep. Below, we introduce five types of "fragrant flowers" that, when placed in the bedroom, can freshen the air and improve sleep quality.
1st Type: Jasmine
Jasmine is a popular flower in summer. Its pure white flowers exude a delicate and refreshing scent, which is pleasing to the senses. Placing a pot of jasmine in the bedroom freshens the air and improves sleep quality. Additionally, jasmine is one of the world's famous teas, and drinking tea made from jasmine can also calm the mind and aid in sleep.
To make jasmine bloom more, place it in a well-lit area with adequate water and fertilizer. The more it is exposed to sunlight, the more it blooms, and the fragrance becomes stronger.
2nd Type: Lavender
Lavender is also an aromatic plant that can withstand high temperatures of up to 40°C. It blooms throughout the year when the temperature is suitable. Lavender flowers from May to October, producing purple spike-like inflorescences.
Placed in the bedroom, the fragrance of lavender can calm the mind, relieve stress, and promote sleep. The lavender essential oil it contains can also inhibit the activity of various bacteria in the air, freshening the air and benefiting sleep health.
3rd Type: Mint
Mint has lush green leaves and emits a refreshing scent. It grows vigorously all year round as long as the temperature is suitable. Mint is also very useful in everyday life, such as for making tea and cooking. It has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, cooling, heat-relieving, and heat-clearing effects.
Placed in the bedroom, the cool scent of mint can freshen the air. When the summer weather is hot and sleep is difficult, drinking a cup of mint water before bed can improve bad moods like depression and irritability, relieve insomnia symptoms, and promote sleep. Drying mint leaves and placing them in a pillow also has a good sleep-inducing effect.
Mint care is also very simple. As long as it doesn't lack water and the winter temperature does not drop below 10 degrees, with adequate sunlight and occasional dilute fertilizer water, it is almost impossible to kill. I've been growing mint for over ten years and have never killed it. Sometimes, even if I forget to water it and it dries out, cutting off the withered branches and leaves and watering it thoroughly will make it lush again. Especially during the high summer temperatures, watering it thoroughly every morning and evening and placing it in a sunny area, along with regular pinching and topping, will make it grow more vigorously and abundantly.
4th Type: Michelia
Michelia is an evergreen shrub or tree with many branches and a neat canopy. Its leaves are glossy and green. When it flowers, the small blossoms emit a faint fragrance that is very pleasant. Moreover, the blooming period is long, and with suitable temperature and adequate sunlight, it can bloom throughout the year. Keeping it in a sunny bedroom, living room, or balcony not only adds vibrant greenery and vitality to the home but also purifies the indoor air and benefits sleep.
