Garden Interior Designs on Windows Pc

Plants grown primarily for their leaf characteristics and utilized for interior decoration or landscape purposes are called foliage plants. As our society becomes more urban, living plants as part of the interior landscape increases. The use of live foliage plants brings individuals closer to an outdoor type of environment, and the large variety of plants gives us the opportunity to select species that will serve as attractive additions to interior decor. Foliage plants are excellent for indoor culture since they are able to survive environmental conditions unfavourable to many other plants.

Most avid gardeners continue to grow plants year-round. We start seeds in the living room, grow ferns in the bathroom, bring in begonias from the outdoor garden year after year, and have pots of herbs in the kitchen. Today there are so many interesting plants that can be grown indoors that there's simply no reason for a gardener not to be surrounded by plants all year-round.

Everyone can grow foliage plants indoors with little effort if the right plant is used in the right location. Large-leaved species such as rubber plants (Ficus elastica), Monstera deliciosa, dumb-cane (Dieffenbachia amoena), and Philodendron are especially suited to commercial building interiors. They provide the size required to make them focal points in interior landscaping. These large leaved-plants as well as the smaller specimens such as ferns, vines, and ivies can serve a similar purpose in the home or apartment.

Practical Steps To Buying House Plants

Indoor plants are raised in glass greenhouses in which the air is warm and humid. When brought into the average home, they need to withstand more adverse conditions than the average outdoor plant. Challenging conditions such as minimum light, inadequate ventilation, warmer temperatures, drafts, and dry air contribute to stressful conditions for plants. Considering the following points will help in the selection of house plants that will complement your interior décor and live for many years to come.

1. Strong and vigorous. Give the plant a quick shake. A plant that's unsteady in its pot may not be well-rooted. Shaking the plant also tells you whether the plant has whiteflies that will scattered in every direction if the plant is infested.

2. Evergreen - Since it will be seen everyday of the year, plants need to be evergreen.

3. Attractive - Some of the foliage plants will flower from time to time, but the primary reason for purchasing is the plant's foliage and how the plants grow. The leaves may be selected for their colour or form, or both and the growth habit should be attractive and require minimum maintenance.

4. Slow-growing - Select plants that are slow-growing without a lot of pruning or training. They will perform better over a longer period of time.

5. Crowded roots - Check the bottom of the plant for roots coming out of the drainage hole. Roots emerging from holes in the pot don't necessarily mean that the plant is under-potted, but it's frequently a first symptom. Root bound plants will require transplanting when you get the plant home.
