Narcissus

Narcissus is one of China's top ten famous flowers and a traditional ornamental flower. After purchasing, simply place it upright in a shallow pot, add water to cover 1/3 of the bulb, and that's it. Place it in a sunny location, and it will grow and bloom by itself within two months, making it very easy to manage.

Hyacinth: Flower spikes with fragrant aroma

Hyacinth is a perennial herbaceous bulbous plant of the Hyacinthaceae family. When it blooms, the leaves complement the flower buds, like a mother nurturing her child. Hyacinth flowers have a strong fragrance and are known as the most fragrant among flowering plants. A potted hyacinth can fill the room with fragrance. Although the scent of hyacinth flowers is not toxic and a small amount ingested by humans does not cause significant reactions, the strong fragrance and the aromatic substances emitted can cause adverse reactions in humans if inhaled for a long time. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the room well-ventilated when hyacinth flowers are in bloom, and avoid placing them in the bedroom.

Hydroponic Pennywort

Pennywort can be directly planted in a stone trough, using sunlight-exposed tap water. It will thrive quickly. Simply change the water once a week, place the Pennywort in a location with scattered light, such as the living room or balcony, and add 1-2 drops of nutrient solution to the bottle monthly to keep it green and lush.

Fortune Bamboo

Fortune Bamboo has thick stems and leaves with high ornamental value, symbolizing "wealth and prosperity, safety, and good fortune." It is loved by many flower enthusiasts. When hydroponically cultivating Fortune Bamboo, pay attention to the water quality and let the tap water sit for a day in advance. Additionally, to promote better growth, apply a small amount of fertilizer every two to three months.

Paired with artificial mountains and stones, it can create an aquatic stone landscape with natural charm. Moreover, as a hydrophilic plant, water bamboo symbolizes wealth, so it also has the meaning of attracting wealth. Placing a pot at the entrance can bring fortune and blessings.

Epipremnum

Hydroponic Epipremnum is one of the excellent indoor decorative hydroponic plants, a climbing ornamental leaf plant. The stems are soft and the leaves are delicate. Placed on the top of furniture cabinets, allowing the vines to hang down naturally, or coiled into rings after the vines become too long, they look like green reliefs.

Evergreen

Evergreen prefers a humid growing environment, which is exactly what hydroponics can provide. However, during hydroponic cultivation, special attention should be paid, especially during water changes. Do not use dirty water; it is best to choose tap water and let it sit for two hours before changing the water, which helps the plant roots absorb nutrients.
