The most unpretentious and hardy indoor plants

They are truly indestructible. If you do not have time to take serious care of flowers, but you want greenery at home, take a closer look at this list.

Plants in your home are not just beauty. Indoor flowers lift your spirits, improve productivity, purify the air and relieve tension.

Despite the clear benefits in the home, many people refuse to grow plants due to lack of time, resources and the necessary knowledge. It’s easier to admit that gardening is not your calling and forget about green pets forever. But even the nastiest flower growers have their own plants. The experts in the field of floristry and decor, the founders of the VISIONÄR bureau Sayana Maksanova and Roman Kovalishin told Wday.ru which ones.

I want to note right away: those plants that have a dense green leaf are initially more resistant and hardy than those that have thin light green foliage. Therefore, we start our personal hit parade with ficus.

This plant has about 2000 varieties, but not all are so unpretentious and can be grown at home.

The rubber ficus is one of the most popular pets and has earned the reputation of being the most excellent adaptator to any conditions. Its leaves are large, deep dark green in color, oval in shape and can grow up to 35 cm in length. Ficus can grow up to 15 meters in height and take the role of a dominant in the interior. Ficuses are real long-livers, they love well-lit places, but prefer to avoid direct sunlight. In summer, the ficus will be comfortable at temperatures up to 25 degrees, and it will withstand a real Russian winter, even if the thermometer drops to -15 degrees. And with watering, everything is simple: the higher the temperature, the more water. A real living organism!

A fairly shade-tolerant plant, which, due to its beauty, has become a popular indoor long-liver. Outwardly, the dracaena resembles a palm tree, therefore it takes the imagination of its owner to the distant sea coasts. Dracaena looks very harmonious both alone and among other indoor plants. It can be a decoration of office space and your home. Easily tolerates artificial lighting, does not like direct sunlight and too dry air. The most unpretentious species are “Dracaena Godsef” and “Dragon”.

Scientifically – sansevieria. The most independent and unpretentious flower. Going on vacation? He will faithfully wait for you at home. Forgot it in a dark corner? You will find it after weeks in the same state. Turned off the water? It’s not scary, mother-in-law’s tongue does not like abundant watering, but still it will be grateful to you for drops of moisture every few weeks. One piece of advice – make sure that not 2-3 leaves live in the pot, but the whole family. Plant several plants together, and then the mother-in-law’s tongue will become a special element of the interior and add a little exoticism to the room.

Mother-in-law’s tongue looks great in large sizes when the leaves reach a length of 70-100 cm. Pick up a beautiful flower pot and enjoy your tropical pet. And say thank you to the flower for purifying the atmosphere at home and saturating the air with oxygen. This is his strong point!

A tropical beauty that will bring romance to your home and your life. Alocasia leaf can grow up to 1,5 meters. One plant does not produce very many leaves, about 3-5, but they are all very large. Every morning dew forms on this exotic miracle, and if you put a flower by the bed, then in the morning you will watch how crystal liquid rolls along the hollow, how it falls on you, waking you up from sleep and charging you with a special mood for the whole day! Alokazia is one of the most magnificent deciduous ornamental plants. It is quite unpretentious and requires simple but regular maintenance.

Of course, the most tenacious and unpretentious plant was and remains the cactus. If there are no children and dogs in the apartment, then cacti are one hundred percent hit! This is a very beautiful, neat and absolutely unpretentious flower. A thorny friend will decorate your home and protect you from negative energy (so they say).

People are wary and wary of some plants in the house, and this is because superstitions fill each flower with some special meaning. In indoor conditions, monsters live well, this is an expressive plant with extraordinary, elaborately cut leaves, but someone said that it was able to suck energy, and everyone believed. Ivy, with its deltoid leaves, fits perfectly into any interior, its maintenance is minimal, but its presence in a living room is accompanied by gossip. We have monstera, alocasia and many other, shall we say, ambiguous colors live in our workspace “Fine Arts Workshop”, and we love them very much.
