Decorative-leaved flowers with red-variegated color

Any indoor plant with red leaves looks unusual and very beautiful, especially if the owner takes proper care of it. Yes, and such a flower attracts a lot of attention, so the pot is usually placed in a prominent place, shading the color of the upholstery, wallpaper or expensive curtains. Moreover, if some varieties of foliage are red throughout the entire surface, others have a juicy decorative shimmer only from above, go to the sides.

Here are 5 of the most spectacular and popular names for ornamental crops that have bright red or red-crimson, purple foliage:

• poinsettia;
• cordilina;
• irezine;
• nidularium;
• oxalis triangular.

Poinsettia

A plant of the Euphorbiaceae family, which has another popular name - "Christmas star". This comparison is given for the bright red leaves at the top, blooming closer to December, New Year. The birthplace of the flower is Mexico and the central part of America. Many varieties of poinsettia are known, the most popular are:

• spherical;
• large-horned;
• sparkling.

On a note. In some subspecies, red leaves are located on top in the middle, in others they have a green surface, and only reddish from the inside. There are also varieties with bright pink, white, even bluish "stars" in the center of the apical stem.

Taking care of a beautiful poinsettia is not difficult. She does not like drafts and temperature drops in the room, extreme heat, blackout. Grows well in diffused light, responsive to spraying and regular watering. During the rest period, it sheds leaves, while it does not look very aesthetically pleasing. The Christmas star is propagated by cuttings, which should have 5 leaves. It is often affected by scabbards, spider mites.

It is important to know that poinsettia's milky juice is poisonous and irritates the skin, so it can only be transplanted and trimmed with tight gloves.

Cordilina

In appearance, this tropical plant with a height of about 40-50 cm resembles a palm tree, but it is not. Cordilina is a shrub of the agave family, a close relative of dracaena. The indoor flower is loved by its owners for its unusual long red leaves, collected in a dense crown. There are varieties with green, variegated red and white foliage, which also look spectacular and attractive. Gradually, the lower leaves dry out, fall off, exposing a thin trunk.

Cordilina loves warmth, diffused light and occasional watering. Does not tolerate direct sunlight, prefers to grow at a temperature of 20-23 degrees in summer, 13-17 degrees in winter. Waterlogging is destructive for a plant, but thermophilic cordilina responds to spraying and annual transplants with good growth.

Irezine

Perennial is unpretentious in care, loves diffused light, grows well in any temperature conditions. It is practically not affected by pests, even tolerates drought and dry air when heating is operating in winter.

Nidularium

Indoor flower of the bromeliad family native to the tropics of America. The plant differs in that it does not have a stem, it is covered with sharp leaves jagged along the edges. The peculiarity of nidularium is the long red leaves that appear during flowering. After flowering, a beautiful rosette dies off, forming several children on the sides. They also soon begin to bloom, which is why the flower grows quickly.

Some have variegated foliage of two or three shades, while others amaze the imagination with juicy overflows of colors of all reddish-green tones with white, yellow or purple stains.

Here are the most popular names for decorative foliage crops:

• croton;
• coleus;
• aglaonema;
• royal begonia;
• cryptantus;
• hypesthesia;
• caladium.

Indoor flower and plant with yellow primrose flowers (PRIMULA)

Indoor primrose with yellow flowers can be grown as a window sill crop. This houseplant with yellow flowers has excellent decorative properties. Garden primroses bloom in winter or spring in the center of a rosette of leaves or on tall peduncles. Indoor flower with yellow primrose flowers stemless and changeable can be planted after flowering in the garden... Indoors, as a rule, thermophilic species are grown, the flowers of which are smaller and located on the peduncles above the leaves. P. soft and P. Chinese are very attractive. P. reverse conic should not be touched with hands, as it can irritate the skin.

Varieties

In stemless primrose, or common primrose (Primula acaulis), flowers on very short petioles; P. variabilis has bright flowers on peduncles 30 cm long.The most popular thermophilic species is P. soft (P. malacoides) with fragrant flowers arranged in tiers on peduncles 45 cm long.

Classification of species of bells: meadow and many others

Numerous types of bells are conventionally divided into groups according to various criteria. So, in terms of life expectancy, most of them are perennials, much less are biennials, several species are annuals.

Annuals in our climatic zone are rare, usually grow in more southern regions.

From this group, one-year-old bell is found in gardens.

An important classification feature that determines the characteristic biological properties of a plant, and, therefore, the features of caring for it, is the natural habitat. On this basis, all species are divided into field, forest and mountain.

Somewhat capricious, they need sun, calcareous soils and good drainage, however, due to their diminutiveness and long flowering, they are very popular. They are especially good for alpine slides, and look good on curbs.

By height, bells are divided into tall, medium-sized and low. Most forest species belong to the group of tall, mountain varieties are usually compact in size.

Below are detailed descriptions of some of the most famous and common species in our gardens, grouped by habitat.

A large group of decorative bells are forest species.

The species grows in forests throughout Russia, but its numbers are constantly decreasing due to the uncontrolled collection of attractive inflorescences for bouquets. It has long been grown in horticultural culture, appreciated for its unpretentiousness, the ability to grow both in the sun and in the shade, on soils of any composition.

There are many garden forms and cultivars, differing in the size and color of the inflorescences.

Varieties are easily propagated by dividing the bush, the natural form is by seeds.

In nature, this perennial grows in forests, bushes, along river banks and on shallows. Its straight, branching stems from above are densely pubescent, leaves, petiolate, cordate below and on non-flowering shoots, broadly lanceolate, sessile or with short stems, also covered with hard short pubescence.

The name of the species reflects the original appearance of its flower, large, in some cultivars up to 9 cm long, drooping, goblet-shaped, inside, and in some forms also outside, covered with bright crimson dots. Individual flowers are collected in a dense brush, bloom in the middle of summer.

The natural form is white, cultivars have various colors: reddish in Othello, pink with white edging and numerous purple dots in Cherry Bell, bright blue in tall (up to 75 cm) cultivar Kent Bell.

This decorative bell is more whimsical than other species, it requires a sunny location, rich in nutrition, non-acidic soils, sufficient moisture, shelter for the winter. Due to the tap root system, it does not tolerate transplantation, especially in adulthood. Propagated by seeds, often self-seeding.

Despite some difficulties in care, it is popular among flower growers, looks spectacular in garden compositions, and is suitable for cutting. Cultivated in culture since the 16th century, numerous garden forms with simple and double flowers are painted in a wide variety of colors: white, blue, blue, pink, purple.

Representatives of mountain species are also widely represented in ornamental floriculture, these mostly low-growing plants are especially suitable for alpine hills and rocky gardens.

The plant feels great in the middle zone of Russia, where it successfully hibernates without shelter. Prized for its unusually long flowering, starting in June and lasting up to 70 days. Prefers a sunny or semi-shady location, dry, well-drained soil, practically does not need watering.

The plant gives abundant self-seeding, can multiply both by seeds and by layering.

Anthurium

Reproduction

The optimal time for plant propagation is spring. Although, if necessary, this can be done in other seasons.

There are several ways to propagate this plant. Leaf propagation is rarely used - it takes too long to wait for the roots to appear (up to 5 months).

By dividing the rhizome

1. When transplanting, divide the rhizome into several parts (preferably no more than 3) with a sharp knife.

2. Place each piece in a separate pot in the usual soil for kaleria.

3. Deepen the rhizome by 1–2 cm.
4. Water periodically.

Seeds

1. To obtain kaleria seeds, artificial pollination must be used. They can also be purchased.
2. Seeds are planted in the second half of winter.
3. A mixture of peat and sand is required (or 1 part sand and 2 parts sheet soil).
4. The seeds are simply placed on the soil without deepening.
5. Cover the pot with plastic.
6. Ventilate daily to prevent mold. Water it periodically.
7. When 2 leaves appear at the seedlings, the seedlings are dived and planted in separate containers.
8. After the seedlings have grown, the upper bud is removed to stimulate the development of lateral shoots.

By cuttings

1. Prepare cuttings - cut off the top of the stems.
2. Powder the slices with Kornevin.
3. Place in water (heating from below will speed up the emergence of roots).

4. When the roots appear, plant in a small pot (required soil: sand or a mixture of peat and sand).
