5 Flower-Bearing Plants To Beautify Your Home

Guest Post by John Guevara

In many cultures, flowers have been grown to symbolize beauty and love for centuries. From little bouquets on the dinner table to brightly colored fields in full bloom, flowers can provide color and interest to almost any room. In recent years, people have begun growing plants indoors more often to bring nature into their homes or office. Below are some flower-bearing plants that can be used inside or outside the house.

1. Rose

One of the most popular flower varieties for indoor home decor is the rose.

With numerous hybrid varieties, there are different shapes, colors, and sizes to choose from.

For example:

  • You may select a bush type that looks more like a shrub and is suitable for wall hanging.
  • If you want it to climb up the walls, you can choose a climbing rose variety that will grow in a vine-like manner.

2. Marigold

Marigolds are an excellent indoor flower.

They grow best in a pot filled with organic material such as good quality soil, sand, and peat moss.

Since they produce very little growth on their own, they grow best when they are either pruned or staked.

Frequent fertilizing is also very important since marigolds need many nutrients to produce bright colors and healthy blooms.

During the summer months, you can plant marigolds outside for use later.

You can also go online and book for flower delivery to get marigolds in any quantity and ship them to you anywhere in the country.

3. Bougainvillea

The Bougainvillea is a beautiful and easy-to-grow plant that requires a lot of light and water during the summer months.

While it can grow inside the house, it needs more attention but makes a striking statement when used as an outdoor flowering vine.

They come in many different colors, but red is the most popular.

Bougainvillea is cultivated for their flowers and sweet, white to pinkish fruits.

The berry-like fruits usually contain two seeds each and are surrounded by papery capsules that split open when they are ripe, revealing their bright orange color.

4. Hibiscus Rosa Sinensis

The hibiscus plant produces some of the most beautiful blooms in various colors.

It is a tropical plant that needs a lot of sunlight and high temperatures and lots of water during the summertime.

It will grow up to three feet tall. If you decide to grow this plant, remember that you need to provide it with lots of direct sunlight to produce flowers during the short summer months.

5. Adenium

The adenium is a very large, easy-to-grow cactus native to East Africa.

It will usually reach three feet in height and when it blooms it produces gorgeous flowers that last for about five days.

For the plant to bloom, it must be potted in a mix of peat moss and sand with a good layer of gravel at the bottom of the pot.

It should be placed outside during the summer months to receive plenty of sunlight.

Finally

Plants can be a useful addition to any home decor.

You can beautify your home by adding plants to your home or office.

Studies have shown that indoor plants can remove many toxins from the air, including formaldehyde and carbon monoxide.

They can also provide an attractive focal point for the room and purify the atmosphere for you and those who spend time in your home or workspace.
