- the leaves of plants should not be sharp, as this will not contribute to a peaceful relationship;
- the most dangerous plant is Monstera, which is a powerful energy vampire.

Attention! Without access to natural light, the color of the leaves will be noticeably paler than that of plants located in the diffused lighting zone.
Japanese aucuba
In their natural habitat (Japan, China, Himalayas), the aucuba can reach impressive sizes up to 3 meters in height. But at home, it usually does not grow larger than 1 meter (and such and such a size is a rarity).

Which to choose?
When purchasing a large houseplant, several factors must be taken into account, and the first of them is the complexity of care.
It is important to assess how hardy the plant is in habitat conditions, to find out the requirements for soil, lighting, humidity levels in the room, the need for pruning and frequent watering. Think about your willingness to spend a lot of time and energy working on such a pet.
Think about your willingness to spend a lot of time and energy working on such a pet.
Find out in advance how quickly the plant you like grows, because many are not ready to wait several years or even decades before it reaches impressive dimensions. If you need the result in the coming months, then it makes sense to purchase fast-growing varieties or an already mature plant.
If you plan to grow two or more crops, then consider their compatibility.
Someone prefer fuchsia, someone loves palm trees, and someone likes classic hibiscus or unusual cypresses. Personal preference should be decisive when choosing a green pet.
Indoor plants and flowers in the interior of the kitchen
The first thing to pay attention to is the place where the pots will be located. There are several kitchen areas where indoor plants simply won't take root:
- The sink zone is dangerous for flowers not so much by excessive moisture as by the presence of household chemicals near it. Even eco-products are capable of causing irreparable harm to plants. This is especially true of the greenery itself, which many cleaning products simply corrode;
- The zone near the stove - in addition to constant temperature changes, indoor plants will suffer from excessive heat, which will scorch the foliage, dry out the soil and the root system. If the hood is constantly working above the stove, it will absorb all the oxygen;
- The zone on the refrigerator - if you remember the laws of physics, then you can understand that all the hot air from the kitchen will accumulate under the ceiling. This will lead to the fact that the flowers placed there will wither in a few days.
- If a living wall of wild grapes is incorporated in the interior design, the condition of the soil must be monitored daily, and the upper leaves must be constantly moistened with a spray bottle.
If the kitchen windows do not face south and the plants are not exposed to direct sunlight for a long time, you can put a pot of ficus on the windowsill.
This plant is extremely unpretentious to the conditions, does not require frequent watering, and a deep emerald hue can favorably emphasize the design elements of the room.
Plants such as begonia, aloe, croton are perfect for light kitchen areas. The latter will fit perfectly in a kitchen decorated in autumn shades.
For lovers of orchids, royal phalaenopsis is suitable - an orchid that is unpretentious to the conditions, which is distinguished by long flowering. It perfectly withstands lack of sunlight and temperature extremes.
Ivy can be used in kitchen design if there are vertical guides there, which it skillfully disguises. Ivy in the form of an ampel looks very original and unusual.
Begonia elatior blooms when most of the plants are asleep - in late autumn and winter. If you care for the flower and fertilize the soil regularly, flowering will be year-round.
Saintpaulia (or Usambara violet) does not require regular watering, and the dried topsoil is good for the plant. It is better to install it where there is a lot of daylight or artificial light.
- Usambara violet
- Spathiphyllum
- Begonia
Spathiphyllum loves warmth and moisture, so it will perfectly take root in the kitchen. It is this houseplant that is considered a symbol of family well-being.
Scindapus is suitable for spacious rooms, as it can grow by 70-80 cm per year. It is used for vertical gardening of various rooms. The kitchen area is no exception, as the flower is resistant to high humidity.
If there is a desire for flowering indoor plants in the interior of the kitchen, you should pay attention to wax ivy, Kalanchoe, hibiscus, hyancites and begonias.
Useful plants in the interior of the kitchen: seasonings at hand

Indoor flowers with large leaves
Large-leaved flowers are also grown in apartments. The exotic look of spotted large greenery visually changes the interior, adding color. In small spaces, decorators tend to place one or two green accents. The favorites of modern trends are calathea, monstera, aphelandra, as well as fern.
Flowers with fleshy leaves
Crassula, or money tree, has thick, dense leaves. It does not grow quickly, but with the correct formation of the crown, you can achieve a striking resemblance to a tree. Many succulents, due to their ability to accumulate liquid in green tissues, have thick leaves. Zamioculcas can be safely included in the list of plants with fleshy, dense leaves.
Overview of landscaping types
With the help of flowers, you can decorate any home, you just need to take into account the size of the apartment and choose the right decor. With all the variety of indoor plants, there can be only two ways of placing them.
Vertical
A good way for confined spaces. Flowers can be placed on long stands, high racks, in pots on the walls. There is even such an option when a phytowall is made. But for this you need to create a special structure in which there will be land with plants.
For vertical gardening, you can use stands, shelves and pots made of wood, metal, plastic. It all depends on the general style of the room. For loft or high-tech styles, metal is suitable, for Provence and shabby chic - wood.
Horizontal
The more common landscaping is horizontal. It allows you to place flowers on wide window sills, shelves or just on the floor. These can be whole compositions or single plants, it all depends on their size. With this design, pots of different sizes and colors are used. In some cases, it is better to use pots of the same design in order to adhere to a certain style, even if they are of different sizes. And sometimes it is permissible to use multi-colored pots, it all depends on the interior.
But nothing prevents the use of both types of gardening. For example, there may be large plants on the floor, and small flowers on a wall or high upright. The main thing is that it looks harmonious. It should not be forgotten that this is still an apartment, not a greenhouse, and the flowers in it are only additional decorative elements, but not the main ones. Moreover, these are not just jewelry, they require care and attention. Otherwise, unkempt green spaces will give an overall very untidy look to the entire interior.
Advantages and disadvantages of plants in the interior
Houseplants naturally purify the air and improve the indoor climate. The green color of the leaves has a beneficial effect on the psyche, soothes, suppresses arousal. Many species have healing properties, are used as aromatic spices, moisturize the air, and smooth out temperature changes.
Plants with massive leaves will look great in the interior of the kitchen. They are able to absorb harmful impurities and unpleasant odors. They are easy to care for - just wipe off the dust from the green surface. The walls of the dining room, the upper cabinets of the headset can be decorated with pots with fast-growing vines. Particularly hardy species will take a place near the stove, away from the window. Ornamental plants in the kitchen will delight not only with stunning flowers, but also with unusual fruits. Peppers and citrus fruits are often grown on the windowsill.
It is necessary to place flowering plants in the interior of the bedroom. With their stunning appearance, they are able to tune the household to a positive perception of what is happening, to create a joyful atmosphere. Due to tall and climbing plants, you can visually raise the ceiling, organize unobtrusive zoning. Herbaceous and woody vegetation is suitable for this purpose. The background for them can be walls or furniture.
It is necessary to acquire this or that culture only with full confidence that suitable growing conditions have been created for it. All parts of indoor flowers should look flawless. The only drawback of landscaping is the need for constant monitoring of the condition of the plants, careful care, taking into account the requirements of each flower.
