A small tip for life: This article introduces some large and easy-to-care-for potted plants and the related introduction of green plants and flowers that are suitable for keeping at home. Next, the editor will introduce them to you.
As the saying goes, "People raise flowers, and flowers also nourish people." People raise flowers for three years, and flowers can nourish people for a lifetime. With the improvement of people's requirements for the quality of life, more and more people like to keep some flowers and green plants at home, which can not only purify the air but also nourish both body and mind. Especially in the living room, it is the most important location with a large space, making it suitable for keeping some large green plants with good meanings and tall plants.
1. Philodendron bipinnatifidum: Large heart-shaped leaves
Philodendron bipinnatifidum, also known as the Split-leaf Philodendron, has many different varieties. The one introduced here is Philodendron bipinnatifidum, which is characterized by its leaves with very prominent veins.
Philodendron bipinnatifidum belongs to the Araceae family in the Monocots, the same family as common potted green plants such as Epipremnum aureum, Spathiphyllum, Monstera deliciosa, and Alocasia.
The plant of Philodendron bipinnatifidum can reach over 1.5 meters tall and serves as a颜值 (visual appeal) presence in a relatively spacious living room.
Its leaves are wide and large, shaped like a standard heart, with the most distinctive feature being the clear, light-colored, and transparent veins visible on the leaves.
I don't think there is anyone who loves raising green plants and can resist such a plant.
Especially its very regular large heart-shaped leaves constantly remind us of "I love you," which is too romantic.
The most important point is that, like other Araceae plants, the maintenance of Philodendron bipinnatifidum is very simple, and its care method is not much different from that of Epipremnum aureum.

Care tips for Philodendron:
① Loose soil. It is best to plant in sandy soil that is loose, well-draining, and does not accumulate water, which prevents root rot and promotes rapid growth.
② Bright lighting. It doesn't necessarily need direct sunlight, but the light should be bright.
③ Prefers warmth. The plant will grow normally at temperatures above 10 degrees and may be damaged by frost below 0 degrees. This is a typical characteristic of tropical plants.
④ High humidity. The leaves will be green and glossy with high humidity, otherwise, they will look gray and prone to cracking.
2. Strelitzia reginae: One leaf and one stem show the beauty of lines
Some say that Strelitzia reginae is actually鹤望兰 ( crane orchid), but if we细分 (subdivide) them, they are actually different.
Like the Philodendron mentioned above, Strelitzia reginae is also a Monocot, but it belongs to the Musaceae family of herbaceous plants.
The plant of Strelitzia reginae is also quite tall and can reach 2 meters high with a pot. Of course, there are also smaller ones suitable for various layouts.
The leaves of Strelitzia reginae can grow very large, as large as banana leaves. Generally, the larger the leaves of a green plant, the better its air-purifying and dust-absorbing abilities.
