Which flowers are easy to care for?
Regarding the topic of easy-to-care-for flowers and a comprehensive list of flowers that beginners cannot kill, as well as related information about green plants, the details are as follows:
Although caring for flowers is not a profound science, there are still many nuances. Therefore, some enthusiasts find it challenging to grow flowers. "I can't seem to keep any flowers alive. I even killed a cactus recently!" For these beginner gardeners, I believe it's not that they can't keep flowers alive, but rather that they haven't chosen the right species of potted plants.
Beginners should pay special attention to the type of flowers they choose. Don't just buy flowers because they look beautiful. Based on the experience of the potted plant store, the more beautiful the flowers, the harder they are to care for. Therefore, beginners learning to grow flowers should start with easy-to-care-for potted plants. For example, the following six flowers are suitable for beginners.
1. Spider Plant
Plants can be divided into four main categories: flowering plants, foliage plants, fruit plants, and succulents. Among these, foliage plants are the most suitable for beginner gardeners as they are easier to manage. For instance, the spider plant is a very easy-to-care-for species. It requires little maintenance, and as long as it is watered regularly, it can stay green throughout the year.
2. Lucky Bamboo
As a well-known hydroponic flower, caring for lucky bamboo is even simpler. Just find a vase, fill it with water, and you can use it to grow a potted lucky bamboo. This plant not only has a high ornamental value but also a good meaning, making it an excellent choice for客厅 (living room) flowers. In caring for lucky bamboo, water is naturally essential. Just pay attention to lighting and ventilation. In a bright, well-ventilated environment with scattered light, lucky bamboo can remain green and glossy throughout the year.
3. Aloe Vera
The aloe vera potted plant is a relatively easy species to manage. Since the plant is small, it is very suitable for placement on indoor desks or tabletops. Especially when placed in front of a computer, it has the ability to absorb radiation. In caring for aloe vera, watering it 2-3 times a month is sufficient, and it is also shade-tolerant, so it's fine even if the indoor lighting is dim.
4. Pennywort
Among the easy-to-grow flowers, in addition to lucky bamboo, pennywort is also good. It will grow strong and vigorous in any sunny location. Of course, the pot must have enough water. When growing pennywort, if you can get pond water, that would be the best. Rainwater is the second best option. If neither is available, just use tap water, preferably after letting it sit for two days.
5. Money Tree
There are many flowers that symbolize wealth and prosperity, and the money tree is one of them. This plant comes in large and small potted versions. If placing it in the living room, a large money tree would be suitable. If you want to put it on a desk or TV stand, a small pot would be better. Either way, caring for a money tree is very simple. It is drought-tolerant, requiring only one watering per month. It also tolerates shade, so it can be placed in a position without direct sunlight indoors.
6. Epipremnum aureum (Devil's Ivy)
Beginners can definitely keep epipremnum aureum alive because it is very resilient. Even if you cut a branch or a leaf, it can survive. Among foliage plants, epipremnum aureum also has the highest sales. Without a doubt, people are attracted to its easy maintenance and year-round greenery.
