Seven Principles of Plant Placement in Green and Healthy Home

For a long time, everyone thinks that green is healthy and the living environment is "green". So many people try to move all kinds of flowers and plants to their homes, but as everyone knows, not all plants are suitable for planting in family rooms, some are prone to insects, some will compete with others for oxygen, and some even have poison.

living room

The living room usually has a large space, where some large ornamental green plants and bouquets can be placed. Moreover, it belongs to a bustling place where people come and go, and the air is relatively circulated. You don't have to care too much about whether the smell of plants stimulates or releases carbon dioxide, but you should choose plants according to the size of the living room. If the proportion of plants is too high, there will still be the problem of increasing the indoor carbon dioxide concentration.

Recommended practice:

If the living room is large, you can buy some large potted plants, such as Fu and Happiness Trees, and you can also absorb dust particles in the air.

If the area is not large, it is only recommended to put medium-sized green radish, rich trees and orchids on coffee tables and TV cabinets, which can adjust the indoor temperature well and have obvious effects on purifying the air.

Especially, the green radish can also produce efficient photosynthesis in places with weak light or high carbon dioxide concentration.

Potted banyan trees have good evapotranspiration, which can increase indoor humidity and purify toluene, carbon monoxide and ozone. Potted coconut trees can also increase indoor humidity and purify benzene, trichloroethylene and formaldehyde.

But be careful not to relax the big potted cypress, because their smell stimulates the stomach and affects appetite; The dripping Guanyin that many people like to put is not suitable, because once it is broken, it will produce toxins, which is not good for your health.

Wet flowerpots are easy to breed fungi and insects, so plants with high water demand are not suitable for indoor use.

bedroom

The bedroom is a place to sleep, not as open as the living room. Generally speaking, the ventilation is not very good and the area is not very large. Therefore, flowers and plants with strong fragrance or excitement should never be placed, and plants with high oxygen demand are not suitable, because they will compete with people for oxygen at night, which will make the indoor oxygen decrease instead of increasing.

Recommended practice:

Because potted plants with soil are more prone to insects, it is more recommended for clean housewives to plant hydroponic plants in their bedrooms, such as green radish.

A healthy sleeping environment needs plenty of oxygen, so don't put broadleaf plants, they will take oxygen at night, and their roots are prone to decay and insects. In addition, coniferous plants such as Taxus chinensis also have the problem of "grabbing oxygen". It is suggested to raise Hupilan, a plant called "air vitamin", which can purify the air at night and absorb carbon dioxide to make oxygen, especially suitable for bedrooms.

You can hydroponic some fresh cut flowers in a vase and put them in the bedroom, but avoid putting lilies, tulips, cordate telosma and orchids. For example, cordate telosma will emit a lot of waste gas at night, which is not good for your health. It will cause dizziness, cough and insomnia for a long time, and it will also aggravate the condition of patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. If you want to raise it, you have to move outdoors at night. Rosemary and tulips can also make people dizzy; Although orchids are beautiful, their fragrance will be too irritating for a long time, leading to insomnia.

Pay special attention to the allergic history of family members when arranging plants in the bedroom. If you are allergic to pollen, don't put fresh cut flowers, especially lily, orange stalk, narcissus and other flowers with exposed pollen. We can put some foliage plants, which will be safer.

balcony

The air on the balcony is very ventilated, so you don't have to worry about whether it is toxic or not and whether it produces carbon dioxide. And because it is an open space, you can put some larger potted plants and even decorate them with waterscape.

Recommended practice:

It is best not to put flowers with strong fragrance, which will make the smell more miscellaneous and unpleasant.

Recommended practice:

It is suggested to raise a bunch of bamboo, because bamboo has a strong ability to release oxygen, can grow without sunlight, and has the function of purifying chlorine and ammonia.

kitchen

China people's kitchens are no worse than those of foreigners, which are always full of oil fumes, high temperature and high humidity. Therefore, similar to the bathroom, plants with good adsorption and growing in reverse light are more suitable.

Recommended practice:

It is suggested to keep ferns in the kitchen. These plants have good evapotranspiration and can purify the air.

Or some hydroponic chlorophytum can also be placed on the top of the cabinet, which takes up no space and is very fresh. In addition, hydroponic white crane taro is also very suitable, which can effectively purify the chemicals in the air, and can help remove the smell of oil smoke and a variety of volatile substances when placed next to the stove.
