#在头头See each other# With the improvement of people's living standards, people like to keep some flowers and green plants at home to beautify their rooms and embellish their lives.

1, medicinal brocade flowers

Nowadays, in order to make plants look better, many businesses will use various means, such as using drugs to promote the brocade production of plants, which is a relatively common phenomenon.

You can see some very beautiful succulents in flower markets in many places. They look full in color and very bright. For such succulents, we must be careful before buying them. Most of the unusually beautiful succulents are caused by drugs. We can barely support ourselves after buying them home.

There are also some golden branches and jade leaves. The young leaves at the top look pink and tender, as beautiful as flowers. Such golden branches and jade leaves are also a kind of medicinal brocade. They look very beautiful, but after you buy them, they will fall off their leaves when you get them home. After you take care of them, the leaves of the medicinal brocade fall off and turn green. Most of them wither directly and are almost impossible to keep. So it is best not to buy such medicinal brocade flowers.

In addition, there are some cactus sprayed with some colorful paint, which looks very nice, but don’t buy them, most of them can’t survive.

2. Flowers with bad meanings or ambiguous or highly toxic

There are many types of flowers and plants. Different flowers and plants have different names, and different names give them different meanings. Some are very auspicious, such as Lucky Bamboo , Money Tree , Monstera , Kalanchoe , Clivia , copper money grass, Lucky Tree , Happiness Tree , Peace Tree, etc., all have beautiful meanings such as attracting wealth, increasing wealth, peace, happiness, wealth, increasing happiness and longevity. Many people like these flowers and plants. They keep them at home, they look comfortable, and they are also good for home feng shui.

However, there are many flowers and plants that look beautiful, but have bad connotations, or are ambiguous, and have special purposes. For such flowers and plants, if you grow them indoors, it is recommended not to buy them.

For example, Bana flower is the famous " dead man's flower "; yellow-white chrysanthemum is a flower used to pay homage to relatives; hibiscus is a homophone for "mourning", and many elderly people dislike it; for such flowers, it is best not to keep them indoors.

In addition to flowers with bad meanings, we should not buy flowers and plants that are too toxic. Although flowers are grown for viewing, in life, "poisoning" occurs every year when growing flowers. The most common one is dripping Guanyin poisoning.

In addition, there are also poinsettia , oleander, winter coral , lily of the valley . Horsetail , French perfume jasmine, etc. are all famous poisonous flowers, especially winter coral. In winter, the fruits are ripe and red, which is very festive, so many people keep them. Little do they know that its fruits are very toxic. If they are accidentally eaten, they will be life-threatening. People with children at home must not raise them.

3. Bare root flowers with only pictures

In flower markets in many places, we can see some bare root flowers for sale. Next to these bare roots, put some The merchants will tell us that flowers like this will bloom after planting, and there are many very rare flower names on them, some of which we have never heard of, such as "Watermelon Tree", "Four Seasons Peony", "Golden Jade", "Five Golden Flowers", etc. The merchants will say that they are all rare varieties and sell for a lot of money.

When encountering such bare-root flowers, if you are not particularly familiar with them, it is recommended to take a detour directly and don’t give them for free, because after you buy them home, most of them will not be able to survive, but even a few can. More than 80% of them will be spent in the wrong version, without any ornamental value, and a waste of time and energy.

4. Spray brightener, shiny green plants

In many flower markets, we can often see that the leaves of some plants are very shiny and touchable. It looks smooth and a little hard, and the green color is not very common. Most of the plants like this are sprayed with the brightener . It is best not to buy such plants, because the leaves sprayed with the brightener cannot enter photosynthesis and respiration, which will affect the growth at best and wither at worst.

5, yellow soil gardenias

Spring and summer are the seasons when gardenias are in full bloom. You can see them blooming in flower markets in many places. Some gardenias in buds are already in full bloom. The clean flowers are smart and cute among the green branches and leaves. You can smell the fragrance of the flowers from a long way away. Many people can't help but buy them home. But after they bought them home, they found that they couldn't be maintained well. The yellow leaves dropped the buds, and the buds died before they could finish blooming. It was very sad to see.

Many people don’t know why this happens, because watering and basking in the sun are strictly based on its habits, and when it was kept in the pot for 7 days, it was in good condition, but then it became worse and worse.

In fact, this situation occurs mostly because the gardenias you buy are cut-root gardenias grown in "yellow soil". They look in good condition, but are extremely difficult to maintain in the natural environment.

This is mainly because gardenias grown in greenhouses are planted directly in "garden soil or yellow soil" in order to save costs. Simple pots are used to sit directly on the ground for maintenance, and they are maintained under light and temperature. They grow vigorously when fertilized and flooded with water, and their roots penetrate directly into the soil. It is a bit like gardenias grown on the ground. When the time comes for sale, the underground roots are directly cut off, and the branches and leaves are full of buds in pots. However, the root system is damaged, and the soil is not loose and breathable nutrient soil suitable for the growth of gardenias. So after we started, various problems emerged one after another and it was extremely difficult to maintain.

For gardenias like this, it is best not to buy them rashly. It is best to buy ones grown in nutrient soil. Even if the price is higher, it is still worth buying. If you buy a gardenia grown in yellow soil, it is recommended to replace it with new nutrient soil directly after flowering and replant. When fertilizing during the growth period, it is recommended to add some ferrous sulfate regularly, because gardenia is a typical southern flower and can only grow robustly in acidic soil. We only need to mix ferrous sulfate into a 1:1000 aqueous solution and irrigate the roots directly, once a month.
