2. Three things to keep flowers in your home

1. It is advisable to grow flowers with strong ability to absorb poisons. Some flowers can absorb a certain concentration of toxic gases in the air, such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen fluoride, formaldehyde, hydrogen chloride, etc. According to research:

(1) Wintersweet can absorb mercury vapor;

(2) Pomegranate plants can absorb lead vapor in the air;

(3) Snapdragon, canna, morning glory, gladiolus, dianthus, etc. can convert highly toxic sulfur dioxide into non-toxic or low-toxic sulfate compounds through oxidation through their leaves;

(4) Narcissus, Mirabilis jalapa, chrysanthemum, Saxifrage, etc. can convert nitrogen oxides into proteins in plant cells;

(5) Chlorophytum, aloe vera, and tiger tail plant can absorb large amounts of indoor pollutants such as formaldehyde, eliminating and preventing indoor air pollution.

After work, grow flowers to improve your mind

2. It is advisable to grow flowers that can secrete bactericides. The bactericides secreted by flowers such as jasmine, lilac, honeysuckle, and morning glory can kill certain bacteria in the air, inhibit the occurrence of diphtheria, tuberculosis, dysentery pathogens and typhoid bacteria, and keep the indoor air clean and hygienic.

3. It is advisable to grow flowers with "complementary" functions. Most flowers mainly carry out photosynthesis during the day, absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. At night, they carry out respiration, absorbing oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide. Cacti are just the opposite, releasing carbon dioxide during the day and absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen at night. Growing flowers with "complementary" functions in the same room can not only benefit both, but also balance the content of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the room, keeping the indoor air fresh.

With their gorgeous charm, flowers decorate nature extraordinarily beautifully and give people aesthetic enjoyment.

Growing flowers can enrich and adjust people's cultural life, add fun, cultivate temperament, and improve health; it can also increase scientific knowledge and improve cultural and artistic literacy.

Growing flowers can green and beautify the earth, protect and improve the environment, purify the air, and enable people to work and study in a beautiful environment, making their lives better.

Growing flowers is not only for viewing, but also has many important economic values. Flowers are an important part of Chinese herbal medicine. Honeysuckle, chrysanthemum, wintersweet, hibiscus, azalea, rose, lotus, etc. are all common Chinese herbal medicines. Fragrant flowers are widely used in food, light industry, etc. For example, osmanthus can be used as food spices and wine, jasmine, white orchid, daidai, pearl orchid, etc. can be smoked tea, chrysanthemum can be used to make high-end food and dishes, white orchid, jasmine, rose, wintersweet, daffodil, etc. can be used to extract essence.

Changed my attitude towards life

Every morning when I wake up, I sit on the balcony for a while. I feel calm, comfortable and peaceful. I feel an indescribable joy watching them grow up little by little.

. In ancient times, people studied the meaning of flowers. The ancients referred to pine, bamboo and plum as the "three friends of winter", plum, bamboo, orchid and chrysanthemum as the "four gentlemen", and peony, crabapple and magnolia as a match, implying wealth and honor. Li Bai, the poet of the Tang Dynasty, wrote the poem "Water lilies emerge from clear water, naturally without decoration", and later generations often use "water lilies" to describe pure and beautiful girls. Zhou Dunyi, a writer of the Song Dynasty, was obsessed with lotus and wrote "On Lotus", praising lotus for "emerging from mud without being stained, and being clear and not coquettish". Literati and scholars of all dynasties also compiled a twelve-month "flower calendar". Not only in China, but also in many countries in the world, various flowers are "personalized" and have their own flower language. In short, everyone loves flowers, both in ancient and modern times, at home and abroad. And planting some flowers, plants and trees can bring psychological benefits to people. Growing flowers can improve attention ability. Attention ability refers to the ability of individual psychological activities to point and focus on a certain object. Attention has a selective function - the basic function of attention is to select information. It is a kind of activity stimulus that psychological activities choose meaningful and meet the needs.

It also keeps the information entering the brain persistent. It has certain functions in regulating and monitoring activities. It is an important guarantee for people to complete activities. When cultivating flowers, people will carefully observe the growth characteristics of flowers, stems, leaves, and fruits, and observe their living habits. Some flowers are very delicate and need meticulous care, which requires concentration; even if some flowers are easy to grow, if they are ignored by the owner for a long time due to problems such as tight soil and lack of water, they will still die. When cultivating flowers, attention is also an indispensable and important factor. Growing flowers can develop people's imagination. Imagination is the ability of the human brain to process and transform an existing image to create a new image, and it is a figurative and creative thinking ability. There are three common ways to create ideas: bonding, exaggeration and emphasis, and typification. In ancient times, many literati had a deep understanding of flowers, and we can feel their rich imagination in their works. For example, in the poem “Ode to Willow” by He Zhizhang of the Tang Dynasty, he imagined the willow tree as a beautiful girl wearing a green belt, with an excellent demeanor, simple and clean image. Some people even imagined daffodils as “fairies of Lingbo” and maple leaves as “the glow of life”. The love of flowers expands the scope of knowledge, enriches the reserve of representations, stimulates creative motivation, and makes people think actively and proactively. This is very beneficial to the cultivation of imagination. Cultivating flowers can cultivate the ability of will and action. The ability of will and action is the ability of a person to consciously determine the purpose, regulate and control his own actions according to the purpose, overcome difficulties, and achieve his purpose. Its excellent qualities are decisiveness, independence, tenacity and self-control. To cultivate a plant, of course, if it grows well, it should be taken good care of. This clarifies the purpose and enhances the sense of responsibility. This is the first step in cultivating the ability of will and action.

The second step is that in the process of cultivation, if you encounter difficulties such as insect pests and diseases, you need to find methods independently and do not give up until you can’t cure them. Such practical activities allow everyone to learn perseverance and independent problem-solving skills while enriching their lives. Flowers have the ability to regulate emotions. Emotions are an important aspect of human psychological life. Regulating emotions is for individuals to eliminate negative emotions and maintain optimism, which has a great direct impact on work and study. In the movie "Princess Sissi", Sissi's father once said to his daughter: "When you feel sad and troubled, look at nature from a distance." Looking at nature from a distance is not only to entrust the spirit to mountains and rivers, but also to more flowers, plants and trees, which can help people get rid of negative emotions, expand their minds and open their hearts. In the city, there are no large forests, so some flowers can be placed in the personal living environment to regulate people's emotions with their appearance and connotation, so that people feel fresh, peaceful and become positive.

For example, chrysanthemums make people feel loyal and truthful; white lilacs give people a youthful smile and vigor; lilies represent purity and friendship; red maples make people enthusiastic. When visiting relatives and friends, visiting patients, you may wish to give flowers, which are not only ornamental, but also can give people appropriate emotional regulation and bring positivity to others. Flowers can also improve people's emotional regulation ability. Emotional regulation ability is the ability of people to carefully regulate and control emotions, maintain a moderate and stable emotional state, and adapt to society. Feelings are a long-term psychological state. They are divided into moral sense, rational sense and aesthetic sense. Since flowers are creatures that cannot speak, breeders must always care and pay attention to them, which can cultivate a certain sense of obligation and responsibility. When getting along with flowers, people should maintain a peaceful state of mind, so that they can use their hearts to feel the "breathing" and real life of these seemingly static creatures. This can make people peaceful and rational. Flowers are beautiful things, and their cultivation of people's aesthetic sense is well known; it is recommended that people plant one or two pots of flowers in their spare time. The fusion of shape and color between flowers is the highest realm of aesthetics. Flowers cultivate the ability to shape personality. Personality is composed of temperament, character, ability and interest. Throughout the ages, people have given personality to various flowers. For example: bamboo, with its upright branches and lush leaves, is a symbol of steadfastness and integrity. Su Dongpo likes peony, which is a representative of friendship and peace. Cultivating the flowers you like to appreciate will have an effect of inculcating and cultivating people. Some people like to grow cacti and prickly pears, which are drought-resistant, heat-resistant, and relatively solid. Some people like to grow daffodils, which bloom in the cold winter and are relatively strong. If you like flowers, you must like their character and connotation, and if you like them, you will imitate them, unconsciously or consciously. But in general, they play a certain role in shaping their personality. Flowers have gradually occupied people's lives and spiritual world. The beauty of flowers and their connotations have been deeply rooted in people's hearts. I hope that people can use flowers to embellish the environment while also embellishing their own spiritual world. 

See when my jade plant leaves take root and sprout.

Self-seeding tornado

Seeing the flowers I grow every day makes me feel happy.

I especially like to grow flowers, which makes me feel peaceful! I feel that I am living a very leisurely and happy life! Doing what I like!

Every morning and evening, I would linger on the terrace, pruning branches, fertilizing, watering and catching insects. When I was bored, I would just sit there and talk to the flowers and plants. Time passed by unknowingly. I would let my soul fly, purify my thoughts, and from then on, I would not fight with the world and only protect my piece of pure land!

Growing flowers is not only for viewing, but also has many other values! Nowadays, flowers and plants play a very important role in our lives. A pot of flowers can purify the air and beautify the environment, but there are many more besides these!

Flowers can increase happiness

Planting them yourself, watching them grow slowly, and watching them take root and sprout, isn't it a very happy thing! And flowers and plants of different colors can double people's sense of happiness! Orange and yellow make people feel warm and enthusiastic; green can relieve eye fatigue and make people comfortable; white, blue and cyan can give people a refreshing and tranquil feeling!

Flowers can provide green food

In fact, many flowers and plants are edible, such as aloe vera. The pulp contains a lot of protein and vitamins. Many restaurants have tasted the deliciousness of aloe vera, not to mention cooking. There are also many aloe vera drinks on the market, but those raised at home are generally not used directly! In addition to aloe vera, there are many succulents that can be eaten, such as Chlorophytum comosum, which can be eaten cold, and Chlorophytum comosum, which can be squeezed into juice and eaten.

Floral scents can stimulate the taste buds

Studies have shown that the fragrance of flowers and plants can stimulate the human body. After the fragrance molecules evaporate and get close to the human nasal membrane, they will make people feel happy! For example, the fragrance of osmanthus is refreshing and has the effect of eliminating fatigue; the fragrance of daffodils can make people feel warm and romantic; the fragrance of jasmine makes people relax, and the fragrance of roses makes people feel happy! So living in an environment filled with fragrance, people will become active! The key is that it can also increase your appetite! (Personal opinion)

Green plants can improve the environment and purify the air

Regarding this benefit, many people say that a small pot of plants can purify the air. This question is also agreed, but a pot of green plants can also have a certain effect when placed at home. For example, a newly renovated house, putting a few pots of green plants can speed up the purification of formaldehyde; a study room with a monotonous decoration, with a few pots of green plants or flowering plants, will instantly feel different; a pot of thriving green plants placed in the living room can make people feel a little warm when there are guests at home; a pot of green plants placed in the office can create a relaxing atmosphere and work efficiency will be faster!

The most important thing is, when you fall in love with flower cultivation, it will become a way of life for you. You take good care of the flowers every day. If the flowers grow well, you will be happy. If the flowers are sick, you will be sad! Flower cultivation becomes your hobby. Through this, you can meet many friends and expand your social circle!

If you take good care of flowers and plants, it will not only beautify your living environment, but also make your home full of vitality and your mood will become beautiful!

This is a Phalaenopsis.

Growing flowers makes me happy.

In the past, people always thought that flower cultivation was an elegant thing, which must be classified with music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and had nothing to do with ordinary people like us. In fact, it is not the case. There is no distinction between family and status in flower cultivation. I fell in love with flower cultivation simply for my own entertainment. After taking care of the housework, tidying up the flowers and plants is an indispensable thing for me. I put down my body and mind, while pruning, watering and loosening the soil for the flowers and plants, I listened carefully to the words from the flowers and plants. After raising flowers and plants for a long time, I also developed feelings. Enjoy the beauty of life between the blooming and falling of flowers. I am not surprised by the humiliation, I watch the flowers in front of the courtyard bloom and fall, I don’t care about staying or leaving, and I just follow the clouds in the sky. Perhaps the greatest benefit of flower cultivation is that it teaches us how to live!

Growing flowers can cultivate emotions and enhance the body's resistance. You can witness the growth process of plants, which will bring you spiritual pleasure. Growing a few pots of flowers on your balcony, you can water and loosen the soil when you rest, which is also a kind of labor, allowing the sedentary body to stretch and relax the tense mood. At the same time, it can also purify the air around you, and often gazing at flowers and green plants can also relieve visual fatigue. Some flowers also have medicinal value, such as chrysanthemums. You can use self-raised chrysanthemums to soak in water and drink. It is non-toxic, pollution-free, clean and hygienic, and easy to use. Soaking in water with it can clear away heat and detoxify, clear the liver and improve eyesight. In short, growing flowers has many benefits for people, but if you are allergic to pollen, try not to grow flowers to prevent physical allergies and discomfort.

The air quality in a house with flowers is good.

Every day when I have time, I will look at the flowers I grow. No matter how bad my mood is, I will feel calm at this time.

When you are in a bad mood, you can feel better by planting flowers

Every day when I open the window and see the blooming flowers and plants, I feel happy and refreshed!

Beautiful flowers delight the heart, and graceful figures are welcomed by people. Life is like a garden of flowers, flourishing and moving forward forever. 

In order to cultivate my mind and character and improve my sentiments, I keep my small garden in order. Taking a walk in the small garden during leisure time is also a good aerobic exercise.

In April, the flowers are in full bloom...

Sitting in the courtyard every day, watching the flowers bloom and fade, how beautiful it is, time knows...

1

First, most flowers and plants carry out photosynthesis, which can release oxygen and make the indoor air fresh. Please note that you should not place them in the bedroom at night because plants absorb oxygen at night.

2

Second, flowers and plants can make people happy. The scents released by flowers and plants can regulate emotions and lift people's spirits. Some plants also have a hypnotic effect.

3

Third, the most well-known function of flowers and plants is to purify the air, especially they can absorb a lot of harmful gases such as formaldehyde, so put a few pots of flowers and plants in the house.

4

Fourth, most flowers and plants are green. Green can relax the mind and make people feel happy when they return home after a day of work. It also serves as a decoration.

5

Fifth, growing flowers and plants is especially beneficial for the elderly. As people get older, they become less active. If they grow some flowers and plants, they will have to water and fertilize them, which also serves as a form of physical exercise.

Express your feelings and relax your mind.

I like to plant flowers. Last year I planted Gesang flowers, hollyhocks, and mallows. This year I just bought sunflowers, February orchids, and tricolor hibiscus. Although the work is hard, when the flowers bloom and the garden is full of splendor, the joyful feeling is hard to describe in words!

Is my money tree growing too long? The light-colored leaves are all grown this year.

I feel good when I wake up every morning and see the flowers and plants!

Pleasing to the eyes and soothing to the heart.

Everyone needs a hobby! Growing flowers is both a pleasure for the hands and for the eyes, and it gives you a great sense of accomplishment!

Cultivate your character, please your body and mind, and find fun and beauty in ordinary life!

Grow flowers and be in a good mood every day!

We call it flat bamboo leaves here. I like it and roses. There are also carnations and asparagus. I think growing flowers can make people feel good and comfortable. Sometimes I feel bad, but looking at flowers makes me feel good. When I wake up in the morning, I look at flowers and I feel good all day. Anyway, there are many benefits.

Growing flowers and drinking tea, drinking tea and growing flowers

I have dry eyes, and growing flowers can reduce my dependence on the Internet. Every day, more than an hour passes by while I take care of the flowers without realizing it.

It is more fun to make it yourself.

Yesterday morning, I saw the bright red petals of the crabapple flowers in the sun, and I was so happy that I felt that life is so beautiful.

Flower wall for everyone

I just like it. I can't move when I see flowers.

The benefit of flower cultivation is good mood. When you wake up in the morning, you can hear birds chirping. When you open the window, you can see flowers in full bloom. When you walk into the courtyard, you can smell the fragrance

of flowers and feel relaxed and happy. The benefit of flower cultivation is making friends. There are drinking buddies, online friends, mahjong friends, travel friends, and flower friends. Flower friends talk about flowers and plants together, and they are endless. They visit nurseries, buy flower pots, and talk about fertilizing, killing insects, watering, and changing pots. They are very happy. The friendship between friends is deep and lasting.

The benefit of flower cultivation is sharing. Friends who like to grow flowers get together to share their flower growing experiences and exchange what they have. You give me seeds, I give you seedlings, you give me some of your flower fertilizer, and I spray yours when I spray the pesticide. A few days ago, a friend who doesn't grow flowers came to my house and praised my beautiful flowers. I said if you like it, bring a pot! She happily chose a pot, and I sent the flowers to her car and said, "I finally experienced the feeling of giving roses to others and leaving a lingering fragrance on my hands." She laughed.

The benefit of growing flowers is that you can take life and death lightly. When you spend every day with flowers and plants, you can take many things lightly, including life and death. After growing flowers for a long time, you know that flowers bloom and fall at different times, and there are also times for birth, aging, illness and death. If flowers and plants die, you buy new ones to replace them. It is the same with life. No longer entangled, face what is coming calmly, and accept what is going away with pleasure. The wind is light and the clouds are calm, and the years are quiet.

I have always loved raising flowers. I feel that raising flowers can exercise the body and cultivate sentiments. In my spare time, I can drink tea, chat, read flowers, and quietly feel the feeling that one flower is a world and one leaf is a bodhi. This feeling is so happy!

There are many benefits to growing flowers. I know that they beautify the environment, regulate the air, cultivate sentiment, cheer up the mood, increase patience and love, increase understanding of plants, improve the aesthetic ability of the environment, improve photography skills, and prolong life. Therefore, the front and back balconies of my house are all flowers and succulents.
