Chlorophytum is good, it can absorb harmful gases. If the home is decorated, it should be good to plant a pot of chlorophytum.
1. Chrysanthemum is good for human health.
2. Indoor plants will release carbon dioxide at night. It is best not to put plants in the bedroom. Some adaptable plants can be planted indoors, otherwise they can't survive indoors.
If you have a computer at home, it is recommended to put a cactus on it, because cactus can absorb secondary radiation.
It is reported that plants such as Zi Yuan, Astragalus membranaceus, tobacco and Celosia cristata can attract a lot of radioactive elements such as uranium. Aloe, chlorophytum and Eupatorium adenophorum can remove formaldehyde; Ivy, rose, rose, aloe and evergreen can effectively remove trichloroethylene, sulfur specific hydrogen, benzene, phenol, hydrogen fluoride and ether indoors; Pigeonpea, Phyllostachys pubescens and Eupatorium adenophorum can absorb more than 80% of indoor harmful gases; Asparagus can remove heavy metal particles; Citrus, rosemary and chlorophytum can greatly reduce bacteria and microorganisms in indoor air.
In addition, chlorophytum can effectively absorb carbon dioxide; Some fleshy flowers of cactus rarely emit carbon dioxide at night; Wisteria has strong resistance to sulfur dioxide, chlorine and hydrogen fluoride, and also has certain resistance to chromium. Some leafy and water-loving plants, such as radish, can keep the indoor air humidity in an excellent state.
Although raising flowers at home has many advantages, we should pay attention to the arrangement of flowers in the bedroom, because flowers release oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis during the day; But at night, flowers do not carry out photosynthesis, not only spit out carbon dioxide, but also absorb oxygen. Therefore, in the bedroom, it is best to put less or no flowers at night to avoid them competing for oxygen and affecting health.
Some flowers can freshen the air, but at the same time, they also have some negative effects on people, so it is best not to put them in the bedroom. For example, although Chinese rose can absorb a lot of harmful gases, its rich fragrance will make people feel depressed and uncomfortable, hold their breath and even have difficulty breathing; Rhododendron, tulip, lily, poinsettia, etc. can also absorb volatile chemicals, but Rhododendron flavum contains a toxin, which can lead to poisoning and shock in severe cases (not for sale in the market), but most Rhododendron contains some volatile oil and azaleas, which have certain curative effects on tracheitis and asthma. On the other hand, tulip flowers contain a toxic alkali, which is reported to accelerate hair loss when exposed for too long; The fragrance of lily, if smelled for a long time, will make people's center excessively excited and cause insomnia.
There are also some flowers, such as the pollen of Bauhinia, which can induce asthma or aggravate cough when exposed for a long time. Mimosin in mimosa is a very toxic organic substance, and excessive contact with human body will cause hair loss; Nose-stimulating particles emitted by cordate telosma at night will make patients with hypertension and heart disease feel dizzy, depressed and even worse. However, cordate telosma is an ornamental fragrant flower, and its rich aroma can repel mosquitoes, which is generally used in courtyards and balconies.
Hello! Let me tell you about the advantages and disadvantages of "indoor flower cultivation":
Nowadays, many people like to grow flowers indoors, but they are also particular about growing flowers indoors.
Plants should carry out photosynthesis and respiration. Photosynthesis is a process in which chloroplasts synthesize organic matter, release oxygen and store energy under the action of sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. Breathing is divided into aerobic breathing and anaerobic breathing. Aerobic respiration is a process in which plants absorb oxygen, decompose their own organic matter into carbon dioxide and water, and release energy.
Because of the weak indoor light, the respiration of flowers is often stronger than photosynthesis. Raising too many flowers indoors will reduce the oxygen concentration and increase the carbon dioxide concentration, which is not good for your health. Indoor flower growers should open windows for ventilation after work to reduce the concentration of carbon dioxide, because flowers mainly breathe at night and release carbon dioxide.
Newly renovated houses will always have some peculiar smells, and selectively placing some plants in new homes will help to purify the air. Chlorophytum is an expert in indoor environmental protection. Studies by authoritative departments in many countries have proved that it is the best flower to absorb toxic substances indoors at present. It can absorb 86% of formaldehyde under 24-hour illumination, and can also transform the surrounding formaldehyde into natural substances like sugar in the process of metabolism, turning waste into treasure and absorbing nicotine in smoke. Chlorophytum also has a unique advantage, that is, photosynthesis is carried out in the case of little light at night. Followed by aloe vera, aloe vera is one of the important flowers to absorb harmful substances such as formaldehyde, which can absorb 90% formaldehyde contained in 1 m3 air.
Buxus buxus is also a good air purifier, which has strong resistance to toxic gases such as sulfur dioxide, chlorine, hydrogen sulfide and hydrogen fluoride, and has the ability to absorb toxic gases and purify the air. Its ability to purify air stems from the special structure of its leaves: the leaves are leathery and have cuticles on the surface. Buxus buxus grows slowly and is a good bonsai material for pile head. There are many famous boxwood bonsai products. Therefore, putting a potted boxwood bonsai indoors is of great benefit to removing odor.
In addition, plants that can remove the odor include cactus, Hupilan, Sedum, Tortoise Shell Bamboo, Canna, pomegranate, rose, rose, chrysanthemum, cycad and so on.
However, the following flowers and trees are not suitable to be placed at home because of their uniqueness. The fragrance of Chinese rose flowers will make individuals suddenly feel chest tightness, discomfort, breathlessness and difficulty breathing after smelling it. The fragrance of orchids, if listened to for a long time, will make people excessively excited and cause insomnia. If the pollen emitted by Bauhinia is in contact with people for too long, it will induce asthma or aggravate cough symptoms. Cordate telosma can emit a large number of particles that strongly stimulate the sense of smell at night. Patients with hypertension and heart disease tend to feel dizzy, depressed and uncomfortable, and even make their condition worse. Tulip flowers contain a toxic alkali, which will accelerate hair loss if exposed for too long. The smell of oleander flowers, if smelled for too long, will make people sleepy and decrease their intelligence; The milky white liquid secreted by it will make the skin red and swollen if exposed for too long. The fragrant smell of pine, cypress and flowers can stimulate people's stomach. If you smell it for too long, it will not only affect people's appetite, but also make pregnant women feel uncomfortable, disgusting and dizzy. If the particles emitted by hydrangea come into contact with people, some people will have skin allergies and itching. Yellow azaleas give off a toxin. Once eaten by mistake, people may be poisoned, and those who are serious may go into shock, which will seriously endanger their health. Lily's fragrance, if smelled for too long, will make people's central nervous system excessively excited and cause insomnia.
Matters needing attention in indoor flower cultivation
Many people like to raise flowers indoors to improve and beautify the indoor environment. Planting suitable plants indoors will decorate the environment and purify the air; However, if the choice is improper, it will cause indoor pollution. Therefore, indoor flower cultivation should pay attention to:
Choose a good variety: indoor flowers and trees that are evergreen all the year round, or varieties that can absorb toxic gases are the most suitable, such as chlorophytum, asparagus, evergreen, cactus, tortoise shell bamboo, ivy and so on.
Unfavorable flowers: clove and cordate telosma can emit particles that stimulate the sense of smell at night, which has adverse effects on patients with hypertension and heart disease; The floral fragrance of oleander can make people sleepy and decrease their intelligence; The particles emitted by hydrangea will make people's skin allergic and itchy; Tulip flowers are toxic and alkaline, and too much contact can easily make people's hair fall off; The oily smell of pine and cypress flowers and trees will affect people's appetite.
Don't raise flowers of "Fragrant Family": When roses and mignonette are together, mignonette will wither, but mignonette will release a substance before withering, which will poison the roses and kill them. Young corn poppy, orchids, carnations, violets and lilies are difficult to get along with other flowers, leading to plant death.
Patients should not plant flowers indoors: fungal spores produced by soil in flowerpots will spread into indoor air, causing surface or deep infection of human body, and may also invade human skin, respiratory tract, external auditory canal, meninges and brain. This is even worse for patients who have already suffered from diseases and poor physical condition, especially leukemia patients and organ transplant recipients.
Some flowers contain substances harmful to human body and should not be placed in the living room, especially if there are children at home to prevent accidental poisoning. Evergreen, for example, contains some toxic enzymes, and its stem and leaf juice is very irritating to the skin. If the baby who is not sensible plays with it or bites it by mistake, it will cause throat edema and even vocal cord paralysis and aphonia due to strong stimulation of oral mucosa. Some flowers and plants are deadly to people, such as Datura stramonium and kidney tea, which are highly toxic. In addition, if the particulate matter emitted by tulips and hydrangeas is exposed for too long, the skin will be allergic and itchy.
The fragrance of flowers is mostly beneficial to health, but some plants have too strong fragrance, such as cordate telosma. People are surrounded by this strong smell for a long time, which is bound to be harmful to health; Even famous fragrant flowers such as daffodils and roses are uncomfortable to breathe these smells for a long time, especially when sleeping. If too many fragrant flowers are placed indoors and the fragrance is too strong, people's nerves will be excited, especially if they smell them for a long time in the bedroom, which will cause insomnia.
1 With the improvement of living standards, it has become a fashion for people to use green plants for room greening and decoration. Recently, NASA scientists found that many evergreen foliage plants and green flowering plants have the function of eliminating toxic chemicals in buildings. The study also found that not only the leaves of plants absorb substances, but also the roots of plants and bacteria in the soil contribute to the removal of harmful substances. Zhou, an engineer at the Indoor Environmental Monitoring Center of China Decoration Association, thinks that the following three kinds are most suitable for indoor display.
Plants that can absorb toxic chemicals, such as aloe, chlorophytum, Eupatorium odoratum, Eupatorium odoratum, Dendrocalamus japonicus, etc., are natural scavengers and can remove harmful substances in the air. Studies show that Eupatorium adenophorum and Eupatorium adenophorum can absorb more than 80% of indoor harmful gases, and their ability to absorb formaldehyde is super strong. Aloe vera is also a good hand at absorbing formaldehyde, which can absorb 90% of formaldehyde contained in 1 m3 air. Ivy, cycad, chrysanthemum, kumquat, pomegranate, Scutellaria barbata, rose, camellia, pomegranate, Milan, daisy, Chimonanthus praecox and marigold can effectively remove sulfur dioxide, chlorine, ether, ethylene, carbon monoxide and nitrogen peroxide.
Orchids, osmanthus fragrans, wintersweet, cauliflower taro and osmanthus fragrans are natural dust collectors, and their cilia can intercept and absorb dust in the air.
2 Plants that can repel mosquitoes As the weather gets warmer, plants that can repel mosquitoes have become the focus of attention. Mosquito net vanilla is such a plant. It is an aromatic geraniaceae plant, its genetic structure has been changed, and it has only been introduced from Australia in recent years. Plants are drought-tolerant, can grow and mature within half a year, and can survive if properly maintained 10 year? 15 years, and its branches and leaves can be changed at will, which has high ornamental value. Mosquito net vanilla gives off a fresh and elegant lemon fragrance, which has a good mosquito repellent effect indoors, but it has no toxic side effects on human body. The higher the temperature, the more fragrance it emits, and the better the mosquito repellent effect. According to the test, a pot of mosquito net vanilla with a crown width of more than 30 cm can drive away mosquitoes in a room with an area of more than 10 square meter. In addition, a plant called pyrethrum contains pyrethrins, which can also effectively repel mosquitoes.
The volatile oil produced by fragrant flowers such as rose, osmanthus fragrans, violet, jasmine, lemon, rose, Dianthus, lily of the valley, Lagerstroemia indica, etc. can kill germs and has obvious bactericidal effect.
Crape myrtle, jasmine, lemon and other plants can kill diphtheria, dysentery bacteria and other protobacteria within 5 minutes. The scents of roses, carnations, lilies of the valley, violets, roses, osmanthus flowers and other plants have obvious inhibitory effects on the growth and reproduction of succulents such as cactus, such as mycobacterium tuberculosis, pneumococcus, staphylococcus and so on. The stomata on their fleshy stems are closed during the day and opened at night, which produces oxygen while absorbing carbon dioxide and increases the concentration of negative ions in indoor air.
Plants such as Hupilan, Huweilan, tequila, palm, kale, Sedum, Rooting and pineapple can also purify the air at night. Climbing plants such as Parthenocissus tricuspidata, grapes, morning glory, wisteria and roses can be planted around the house, so that they can climb along the wall or along the frame to form green trees, which can effectively reduce sunlight radiation and greatly reduce indoor temperature.
Experts think that these flowers and trees are not suitable for bedroom decoration.
Orchids and lilies: Their fragrance will make people overexcited and lead to insomnia.
Rose: its rich fragrance will make some people feel chest tightness and discomfort, hold their breath and have difficulty breathing;
Pine, cypress, flowers and trees: its aromatic smell has stimulating effect on human stomach, which not only affects appetite, but also may make pregnant women feel uncomfortable, disgusting and vomiting;
Hydrangea: the particles it sends out will make people's skin allergic if they come into contact with people;
Cordate telosma: At night, it will emit many particles that stimulate the sense of smell. If you smell it for too long, it will make people with high blood pressure and heart disease dizzy, depressed, uncomfortable and even worse.
Tulip: its flowers contain a toxic alkali, which will accelerate hair loss if exposed for too long;
Nerium oleander: It can secrete a milky white liquid, which will poison people for a long time, causing drowsiness, mental decline and other symptoms.
5 Correct placement of indoor plants
Plants can reduce the air pollution caused by indoor decoration, so many people buy them, but the arrangement of plants is not so simple. The arrangement of indoor plants can't be placed at will according to everyone's interests. Different plants have different ways and positions.
The frequency of going in and out of the main entrance of the living room is very high every day, so it is best for plants not to block the action, and upright flowers should not hinder the line of sight. The living room is most suitable for receiving guests and family members, so it is not suitable to put tall plants in the middle, and the number of flower varieties should not be too much. Just use a few plants to decorate it.
The living room and other rooms can be separated by plants, such as ivy and chlorophytum, to form green curtains, which look natural and elegant. Many people in the bedroom think that plants will absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, so putting more plants in the bedroom is good for the human body. This view is wrong.
The photosynthesis of plants is completely inhibited at night, and plants only breathe, that is, absorb oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Too many plants in the bedroom are bound to compete with people for oxygen, which will cause harm to the human body over time. Therefore, it is best to put a small amount of small plants in the bedroom, such as aloe, asparagus, or lilies and daffodils. Don't hang plants.
The study is a place for reading and working, so it is not advisable to choose too many plants to avoid disturbing the line of sight. It is a good choice to put a pot of evergreen on the desk. The bookshelf is suitable for hanging plants and can make the whole study look quiet and elegant. The temperature in the kitchen changes greatly, so it's best to choose ferns with strong practicability, or simply hang peppers and onions on the wall for decoration. The environment in the bathroom is damp and dark, which is suitable for ferns to survive. In order to prevent plants from being flooded, you can also choose to hang plants. The higher the position, the better.
The art of posing flowers needs to consider three basic elements: color, modeling and occasion. In terms of color, it is bright or soft. In addition to matching the flowers placed together, the color of the flower arrangement container is also very important. If there is a window sill or a place where there is enough light to shine in, you can choose transparent glassware, and then add some monochromatic or multicolored glass beads in it, and it will be a sunny day at first sight.
Of course, you can insert natural beauty by misplacing a bunch of flowers, but it will inevitably be a bit boring every day. Some convenient methods will teach you not to carve flowers and leaves again like Japanese flower arrangement, but also to insert unique images. For example, if you have a bottle with a wide mouth, you want to insert some double petals and gorgeous flowers (such as peony and rose). ) into a geometric hemisphere, you can alternately make small squares on the bottle mouth with tape, and then insert flowers in the squares. This method can make the flowers evenly distributed, and only by adjusting the length of the flower stem can the hemispherical effect be achieved.
The modeling design of flower arrangement can also start from the material aspect. European flower arrangement likes to put fruits and flowers together, but it takes a long time. The pursuit of minimalism will leave the secret of using two containers. The first one is narrower and shorter, and it is arranged in the middle; The second one is higher and wider, and put the fruit outside. Of course, the flowers inserted inside should be higher than the outer bottle, and the outer container should be transparent so that the flowers and fruits can be exposed at the same time. I once tried to use a square glass bottle with a plate of ions and orange-red roses in it. It's fiery red, with bright changes in intensity. It's really beautiful.
Putting flowers at home depends on different occasions. Is it to get together with friends? Or meet your lover? Is it a formal banquet or just a chat? . In order to create romance, you can choose a unique plate, put a few blooming flowers, completely remove the stems, and float two or three lighted candles, so that Shui Ying can reflect the fire. It is also interesting to decorate the table with flowers and fruits, but you don't have to spend a lot of money to pile them on the table. Invite students to have afternoon tea at home, and prepare in advance to drink strawberries with ice cubes made of small buds such as diamonds, roses, daisies and pansies. Putting these ice cubes in the guest's juice is very eye-catching. After the ice melts, the flowers will still sway in the cup.
Different colors can promote or relieve different emotions. If you want to decorate the whole house with one color, the effect will often be very strange. A person's mood may fluctuate. It is impossible to adjust your mood by constantly changing the color of the whole house. But we can use conspicuous flowers. For example, people who are lazy, anaemic and have frozen hands and feet can plant some bright red flowers such as flamingos and Zhu Dinghong at home, which will help to strengthen their sense of momentum and warmth. Friends who are prone to depression can choose bright yellow sunflowers or gerbera. Sweep away the clouds in my heart and at home. If you are restless and insomnia, you can put a bunch of white stars in your bedroom. Tiny flowers, like stars, will take you away from your troubles and fall asleep. ...
